This May, we’re on a mission to break the silence.
Access to menstrual products, education, and safe spaces is not a luxury, it is a fundamental human right. Yet for countless girls in our communities, period poverty remains a major barrier to education, health, and dignity.
To mark Menstrual Hygiene Month, Lead Child Africa is rolling out a month-long campaign to educate, empower, and elevate girls across the region. We are dedicated to creating a world where no girl is limited by her period.
