This initiative promotes girl-child support and hygiene education, aiming to keep girls in school and prevent health complications.
The foundation’s founder, Mrs. Ukeh Omang, emphasizes the need for government policy to address menstrual hygiene management in rural areas, where access to sanitary products is limited. The initiative has garnered positive feedback, with beneficiaries expressing gratitude for the support.
The Foundation seeks support from well-meaning Nigerians, the government, and international organizations to expand their reach and provide training for the women to become financially independent.
