My Nonprofit Reviews

1 of 3 girls in uganda have no knowledge about menstruation before their first menstrual encounter, it is mostly because of cultural taboos that prevent women from discussing about menstruation.

Volunteer Action bet work has taken the initiative to educate not one girl but more than 2000 school going girls about factual menstrual health and in the communities in the districts of Nwoya, Amuru Omoro and Gulu districts of northern uganda .
In so doing teaching them about safe and hygienic menstrual materials and safe disposal of menstrual materials.

The organization ,manufactured and distributed over 3000 disposable sanitary pads to the communities through they’re HEALTH PERIOD INITIATIVE PROGRAM ( HPI).

Without menstrual stigma women and girls can thrive and menstrual health can be addressed without fear.
Girls in schools have managed to go through their menstruation hygienically, safely with dignity.

I am proud to know about this community developing organization
