Menstruation 🩸/periods, is not a disease.
It’s normal, healthy and a sign that a girl’s body is working exactly as it should.

But the reality many girls face is different:
- No access to sanitary products
- ⁠Girls miss school and opportunities every month.
- ⁠Inadequate information – Myths and silence leave girls confused and unprepared.
- ⁠Stigma from society – Periods are hidden, whispered about, treated like something dirty.

These challenges don’t just affect health – they hit confidence, education, and dreams.

Let’s change that.
Every girl deserves to manage her menstrual health with clean products, good hygiene, proper nutrition, and the freedom to seek help when something’s wrong. Parents, teachers, community leaders, and young people – we all have a role to play in supporting menstrual health education.

Remember: Periods are normal. Periods are healthy. Periods should never stop a girl from achieving her dreams.

What It Looks Like When Young Women Are Backed Without exposure to Violence.

Part of their CBO Capacity Strengthening Program, Brass for Africa - a leading social impact organisation made a bold decision to fully cover for transport costs of our Founding Director Nalumansi Faridah for her 3-month Website Development course with Women in Technology Uganda

This course is 100% free, but logistics like transport and computer RAM upgrade, and any other minor costs can be a barrier — Brass for Africa stepped in and removed the transportation barrier.

Now! Now Faridah is excited to learn, grow, and use these skills to create opportunities for herself, our Safe Space and other young women in our community.
Thank you, Brass for Africa, for believing in us!

Boys Up for Menstruation Periods 💪
Ahead of the International Meanstruation Hygine Day, we held our second Pads and Power Party and this time it was for boys. As we thrive to make periods a normal fact of life, we recently launched the “Pads and Power Circle” which will be comprised of boys, Girls and the larger community. This recent sessions was facilitated by our Founder Nalumansi Faridah, the Chairperson Kawempe Youth Council- Ssebuufu Isaac, the CEO All for Love Foundation- Driss Micheal Katabalwa, and our Sanitary Pads tailor and fashion designer Farook. It was aimed at educating our male Champions of Change on Periods, why girls face it, how they manage it, challenges they face while experiencing periods, kind of support they need, myths and taboos around it, and how boys make it hard for girls.

The boys were apologetic upon realizing their misconception, admiting they previously believed girls were to blame for their menstrual accidents. The boys vowed to become champions of dignified menstruation and provide support not limited to guiding new Menstruants.

FABRIC OF HOPE- LETS TALK PERIODS!

We proudly launched our Pads and Power Circle and hosted the very first Pads and Power Party with girls alone! 💫

This vibrant community brings together boys and girls aged 11–24, all committed to making menstruation a normal part of life. In a fun and engaging setting, we spark open conversations that could stakeholders accountable, welcome new menstruators with the right information, and support experienced menstruators by breaking the myths and taboos that make periods seem shameful or “ugly.”

This milestone was made possible through the generous donation of our monthly donors and contributions of Sanitary Pads from Brass for Africa. Together, we distributed 19 Reusable Sanitary Pad kits to vulnerable girls—kits that will support them for the next 12 months.

This was not about pads for charity. This was about pads for dignity. 💛

For many girls, Communities like ours aren’t always safe places to grow up in, no mentors to turn to, or any opportunity to be heard. 💛

We’re working to change that — one girl, one skilling platform, one opportunity at a time.

Since our inception, our work has been largely supported by through their Race for Equality Campaign. Up to now, they continue to cover about 90% of our programs — including the rent for our safe space. We are deeply grateful for such a partnership and commitment.

Because of that consistent support, we’ve been able to show up for girls and young people with dignity, mentorship, and hands-on skills training.

Through this support, we have kept a consistent safe space open for both girls and boys to learn, grow, and feel protected.
We have delivered regular Music and life-skills sessions that build confidence, leadership, resilience and creativity.
We have nurtured peer mentorship, allowing boys to support girls, lead, and find their voice.
We have contributed to a cry to end Periods poverty and related stigma while involving male participation in menstrual conversation.
And most importantly, we have created a community where young people feel seen, heard, and valued.

Now, for the first time ever, we are launching our Monthly Giving Program. Not because support has ended — But because the vision is growing.

We want to reach more girls.
We want to expand mentorship.
We want to introduce more entrepreneurial skills and impact even more young people.

And that growth requires lasting support from people like you.

This is an invitation for those who believe in our mission to help us sustain and expand it — month by month, life by life.

You can be part of this journey by skipping one cup of Coffee a month, and give it to the Young People in Crisis:

While celebrating International Women's Day 2026, we had the pleasure to host the pearl riders Andrew Agassi, and team.

Brass for Africa has pledged to support an increasing number of girls and women in our community annually since 2021. Consequently, by 2026, we have successfully reached around 300 girls and young women through our programs, offering them a Safe Space to assemble and address their distinctive challenges, all under the auspices of Race for Equality.

This March, our Pearl riders, including Mr. James Trott and the Ugandan team, will embark on a 300km cycling journey from Nakivale to Kampala, thereby empowering up to 300 girls through our center and beyond.

In our next post, we will share a link for your support, starting at 5k, to make this possible. Thank you, Brass for Africa, for your dedication to fostering brighter futures for youth through music.

Five of our girls are part of the incredible Tyside Pearls Band, making waves in Kenya and set to perform this Sunday at the Kenya National Theatre.

Their journey from our Safe Space has been empowered by 's Race for Equality Campaign since 2021, providing them with opportunities to break free from vulnerabilities.

Through the Music and Life-Skills program, they've developed resilience in the face of adversity, and music has become their escape.

These girls have never prayed over a dream of leaving their flooding slum communities, but because of music, for 9 days a year, they experience life beyond these disadvantaged communities, sleeping in fancy hotels during camps. And on 25th this month, they saw themselves on the streets of Kenya 🇰🇪. The transformative power of music is truly amazing!
