Bio

Manjit K. Gill MBE, is Founder CEO of the phenomenal charity, Binti International which was the first period charity registered in the UK, India and now the US in 2014.

Binti has a vision to create a world where all women have menstrual dignity.

Manjit has amassed over 20 years of international business expertise and has been involved in 7 startups prior to Binti. It was her role as a volunteer mentor for a young lady in Kenya with the Cherie Blair Foundation that led her to start Binti when she found out that some women do not have access to menstrual products.

Her mission has created a Global Period Revolution with many governments and countries creating change.

Manjit is an award winning Founder.

Manjit says her Sikh faith has led her to believe she can accomplish anything that she puts her mind to and that belief has led her to follow her passion and drive to keep going. She says that is when she found out some women do not have access to menstrual products it fuelled her fire to create change - because she knows that without a pad she would not have been able to have done anything in her life.
