DONATION OF HYGIENE KITS TO ADOLESCENT GIRLS IN VILLAGES IN THE FAR NORTH REGION

Adolescent girls in the Far North Region face challenges  when managing their menstrual health. Poverty, cultural taboos, and lack of access to basic hygiene products often result in school absenteeism, low self-esteem, and increased vulnerability to reproductive health issues. 

when we  support adolescent girls with hygiene kits to manage their menstrual cycles safely and with dignity, we raise awareness on sexual and reproductive health (SRH) through education and discussions during distribution. This encourage school retention by reducing absenteeism caused by lack of menstrual products. By donating hygiene kits and raising awareness on sexual and reproductive health, the Association reaffirmed its dedication to safeguarding the rights and wellbeing of women and girls. 
The main goal of this initiative was to promote dignity and self-confidence among adolescent girls and women while ensuring that no girl misses school simply because she lacks access to basic menstrual hygiene products. Keeping girls in school is important for the future of their communities, and ensuring they have sanitary pads, soap, and other hygiene items is a practical yet powerful way to achieve this. 
To respond to this challenge, a donation of hygiene kits was organized for adolescent girls in rural villages, with the aim of promoting menstrual hygiene management, dignity, and empowerment.
