Expanding Kit Access for Women & Girls

[/fusion_title][fusion_text]

In early February, the PFC team traveled to the north for the Sexual Reproductive Health Education to 106 students in our schools and also to make menstruation kits available to the women in the communities.

In the SRH classes we taught both boys and girls about the reproductive system and how babies happen, which is a question that the students always ask. The lessons were so pleasing to the children that they promised to abstain from sex and stay in school until they achieve their goals as doctors, lawyers, nurses, teachers, presidents, etc.

We promoted the DfG menstrual hygiene kits to the women in the communities and told them about the subsidized cost which is Le 10,000 for a Super Kit instead of Le 53,000 made possible by Schools for Salone USA. Our team received multiple requests to have a local sales agent available so women can buy more kits. The women greatly appreciate the kits and are happy for the menstrual hygiene management tools and thankful to all those who made it possible.
