dc.description.abstractPeriod Poverty refers to the lack of accessibility of menstrual health materials caused by poor standards of living and high poverty rates in rural parts of the country which leads to school dropouts, early pregnancy and poor performance due to high stigmatization. This problem was identified before and was sort out by the distribution of pads using a manual process, The manual process involved government lorries distributing free towels to schools under the supervision of the head teacher guidance counsellor and the rural chief who facilitated distribution without reporting, this uncovered hitches of unaccountability and monitoring hence the implementation of the proposed system Pad IT which improves accessibility of sanitary towels at a subsidized rate in an automated manner through the scanning of QR codes printed on cards to verify access of the pads. The proposed technology implemented allows parents to top up a percentage of ksh 15 to provide eligibility which represents a lower retail market price after which the code scanned provides the details of the student history and wallet top up. The methodology used is Spiral method which allows an integration of prototyping and waterfall method to measure risks in each phase of the project. This project will approach an Object-Oriented Analysis and design that is represented by a mobile based android system to allow the generation of QR codes which will be printed on cards to represent a profile for each girl in a given school in rural Narok. The system will use a firebase database that will store up data and generates reports to ensure accountability of data. Therefore, providing visibility in the distribution of sanitary towelsen_US
