When we learned from our friends in Uganda that lack of sanitary items were a cause for young women to miss an entire week of school and that missing school for a week sometimes led them to not return at all we knew we had to do something. We brainstormed over dinner one night how to take this issue out of the equation altogether. That evening, our Sanitary Kit plan was born. For $25 a female student will be given a kit that includes 8 reusable cloth sanitary napkins, 2 pairs of brand-new underwear, a wet/dry bag, a bar of soap and care instructions. We will hand deliver the kits each time we travel to Uganda. It’s our goal to eventually have one of our kits in the hands of every young lady that we support. Thank you so much for your interest in helping us remove this obstacle for young women in Uganda.
