Episode 4: Manushi Secondary School β 42 Reusable Pads Delivered | Hedhi Huru, Bitcoin & Girls Education in Tanzania
In Episode 4 of the Bitcoin Arusha Podcast, Sats Tagga and Man Like Kweks share their journey to Moshi, Tanzania, where they delivered 42 reusable menstrual pad kits to students at Manushi Secondary School through the Hedhi Huru initiative β a project tackling period poverty using locally made, sustainable solutions funded by Bitcoin.
This episode highlights the realities girls face when missing school due to lack of menstrual products and shows how Hedhi Huru is creating practical change by providing reusable pad kits while promoting menstrual health education.
During their visit, the team hosted a hands-on workshop where students learned how to use, clean, and maintain their kits, helping ensure long-term impact and confidence for the girls receiving them.
Special recognition goes to Helen, a talented artisan and single mother who handcrafted all 42 reusable pad kits, showing how Hedhi Huru supports both girlsβ education and economic empowerment for local women. The episode also features Jacob and Vincent from Bitcoin Arusha, who joined the journey and helped document and capture the impact of the day.
Listeners will hear reflections on measuring long-term impact, building Bitcoin circular economies in Tanzania, and how projects like Hedhi Huru demonstrate Bitcoin being used as a tool for real social change.
