Campaign Story
Dear Friends,
About 3 million girls potentially unable to buy sanitary pads while menstruating in south africa. They will miss school on days their cycle comes. My drive is to help, starting with the school in my community, which boast about 18 schools. Girls from under priviledged schools in the my community sometimes have
to miss school because they can't afford sanitary towels / pads when it
their time of the month. This has seen them miss school to avoid the
"embarrassing" situation. Some will use tissue papper which is not safe
and poise a healthy hazard. so I have taken it upon my self to buy
sanitary pads and donate them to schools so when its that time, girls
can ask their teachers for sanitary pads and not miss school. Please help me improve the lives of young school girls.
