OUR HISTORY
From the Start
Access to safe and dignified menstruation is a fundamental need yet, over 100million women and girls around the world lack access to menstrual care. Caring For Girls with Period Initiative a Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC/lT/N0132310) registered Non-Governmental Organization (NGO)
founded in 2018 provides education to underprivileged girls and women about menstrual hygiene, sex education, the importance of education, self-esteem, and family planning choices amongst others. Over the years, we have been able to reach out to over 30,000 women and girls around and we intend to do more to make sure that period poverty is eliminated from Africa.
