Imagine you were a girl sitting in class, and suddenly your friend tells you that there is blood on the back of your skirt.
This is how many girls come to know about their menstrual periods.
In our 2019 survey, 16% of girls said nobody ever spoke to them about menstruation before before they started their periods. Most girls who were spoken to learned from a teacher.
The goals of the ministry are to increase the rates of continuation of girls to secondary education and to help girls know the love God has for them.
We seek to do this through teaching girls and parents about menstruation, the value of education, and God's love, and through working with schools to increase access to sanitary pads, Currently, this ministry has helped over 28,000 girls gain access to materials to manager the menstruation.
