Good Neighbors carried out new activities in Mehe to train the community (women and men, girls and boys) on reproductive health, and meet the demand for low-cost reusable pads. 89.7% of the women said pads are not affordable where they live.
Without access to sanitary pads, women wait until dark to launder old rags, which often do not dry in time for the morning. Girls at school, too embarrassed to use the common washroom, go back home or head to a friend’s house nearby to use private facilities. Join us in raising funds for 350 Dignity Kits.
Every day, girls all over the world miss school because of their menstruation. They need knowledge and support to understand their bodies and how to deal with symptoms. We believe that access to menstrual products is a right. Who thinks girls can do anything?
Good Neighbors Cameroon is providing access to reproductive health and hygiene information, and we are happy to be supporting their project!
Girls Will Stay organized another Virtual Raffle Fundraiser for Better Life for Girls and the winners have been announced. They sold 507 tickets and a total of $847 was raised for dignity kits.
