Mrs Alicen Chelaite, together with the people from Girl
Child Network, accompanied us to a primary school in Rongai
district.
Due to the high poverty here we decided to distribute the pads I bought. The
money herefore was donated by the organisation called HELPING
HANDS, France.
We provided 480 packets of pads, good to help 160 students to pass through their
next trimester without needing to miss one day out of school.
Creating
a bigger awareness around menses would solve many awkward
situations. And it is definitely not just a women’s matter but men also
need to be informed as they are responsible in supporting the girls at
school and later on in life, their wife. `understanding is something that
a woman needs equal to having the right pads.
This is how the idea for an ‘educational game’ grew.>>product
