KuCoin Expands Menstrual Equity Project to The Bahamas in 2025

  • Mrs. Ann Marie Davis, the First Lady of The Bahamas, took the initiative to personally drive the distribution of feminine hygiene supplies.
  • In addition, the strategy used by KuCoin takes into account the limited water resources available in the region as well as the high expense of cleaning reusable items.
  • Throughout the last several years, KuCoin’s initiatives in the realm of corporate social responsibility have garnered widespread recognition.

Recent developments in the Menstrual Equity Project in 2025 in The Bahamas have been made by KuCoin, a leading global cryptocurrency platform that is founded on trust. KuCoin, the Global CSR Foundation, and the American Medical Women’s Association (AMWA) have collaborated to develop this initiative, which aims to solve menstrual health concerns in regions that are not adequately supplied with medical care.

Dr. Padmini Murthy, who is the Global Health Lead for AMWA and the NGO Representative to the United Nations, and Ms. Jing Cesarone, who is the Founder and CEO of the Global CSR Foundation, came up with the idea for the project in 2023. The initiative’s primary objective is to provide vital assistance. Mrs. Ann Marie Davis, the First Lady of The Bahamas, took the initiative to personally drive the distribution of feminine hygiene supplies that were supplied by these worldwide partners to local schools and communities.

“There are girls stay home from school while menstruating, as they cannot afford to buy their napkins,” said Mrs. Davis at the distribution event. “I couldn’t believe the great need for this product here in the Bahamas in underserved communities. I’m extremely grateful to my Global Partner, for her much-needed donation of sanitary pads.”

In 2023, at the KuCoin Green Future Reception, which took place during the COP28 conference, KuCoin expressed a larger commitment to social responsibility, which includes this contribution. Ever since that time, KuCoin has been actively involved in a variety of other welfare activities. Beneficiaries in the Republic of Suriname, St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, and domestic violence shelters in New York received menstrual kits, which included sanitary pads and menstrual cups, as part of the Menstrual Equity Project, which is one of the flagship programs. The first distribution of these kits took place in March 2024. In the wake of these first attempts, the initiative expanded its scope to include inclusion of The Bahamas.

In the Bahamas, the majority of KuCoin’s donation consist of disposable sanitary pads. These donations are made possible with the assistance of the Office of the Spouse of the Prime Minister. In addition, the strategy used by KuCoin takes into account the limited water resources available in the region as well as the high expense of cleaning reusable items. Additionally, it guarantees that women are better prepared to deal with natural catastrophes such as hurricanes and tropical storms whenever they occur.

Both the Distribution of Feminine Pads Initiative, which is being directed by the First Lady’s Office, and the Menstrual Equity Project that KuCoin is working on have goals that are quite similar to one another. In addition to creating better understanding and acceptance of menstrual health concerns within the community, their shared objective is to minimize the amount of absenteeism among schoolgirls that is caused by period poverty caused by period poverty.

“Your donation has made a tangible impact on the lives of those we support. The pads were distributed to Parliamentarians for inner city areas, NGOs, the girls penitentiary centre for girls, and many caretakers of young girls and battered women. The recipients were overjoyed and expressed the great need for these supplies, which are expensive. The distribution was great. These pads were significant in enabling the recipients to manage their menstrual health with confidence and dignity.” Mrs. Ann Marie Davis, Spouse of The Prime Minister of The Bahamas, wrote a personal letter of thanks, “We are deeply thankful for your compassion and commitment to improving the lives of others. Thank you for your kindness and generosity. We look forward to continuing our work together to empower and support our communities.”

Throughout the last several years, KuCoin’s initiatives in the realm of corporate social responsibility have garnered widespread recognition. KuCoin was presented with the “2025 Corporate Social Responsibility Award” by the World Women’s Organization which was presented to the company in March of 2025.

“The Menstrual Equity Project is not only about health and dignity—it’s about equity,” said Nancy Cheung, Chief Sustainability Officer at KuCoin. “We are committed to expanding this project globally, collaborating with more organizations to improve the living conditions of women and contribute to the well-being of women and children around the world.”

Initiatives such as the Menstrual Equity Project are becoming vital pillars of KuCoin’s long-term sustainability strategy. These initiatives are strengthening the social value moat of the platform and establishing a new benchmark for responsible innovation in the cryptocurrency industry. KuCoin is embarking on a new chapter of global compliance and sustained growth in 2025.
