Menstrual Hygiene Day 2021

Image
May 28th, 2021 is Menstrual Hygiene Day. We visited GGSS Gandun Albasa, Municipal LGA  of Kano State to raise awareness on menstrual hygiene and demonstrate how to make reusable sanitary pads.  Our health personnel talk to the girls about hygiene, common misconceptions and debunked some of the menstrual myths.  She also highlight on douching, infection, seeking for medical care and opening up to mothers/guardians for things they don't understand. She also indulged a Q&A with them.  Our volunteer Tailor conducted a practical session on how to sew reusable sanitary pads using cardboard and materials. #menstrualHygieneDay2021
