Commemorating the International Day of the Girl Child 🌸
To celebrate this year’s International Day of the Girl Child, DC Joy Foundation organized a Reproductive Health Talk for adolescent girls in classes 4–6.
Facilitated by the Planned Parenthood Federation of Nigeria (PPFN), the session focused on reproductive health education: menstrual hygiene - empowering the girls with accurate information, confidence, and the skills they need to make healthy choices.
At the end of the session, the girls were supported with sanitary pads to promote menstrual hygiene management and ensure no girl misses school because of her period.
Through our Girls Can Lead Club, we continue to equip adolescent girls with life skills, knowledge, and leadership abilities to help them realize their full potential and break barriers that limit their growth.
Together, we are investing in girls’ health, education, and leadership — because when girls are informed, confident, and supported, they can lead and thrive. 💪🏽💖
