HAMDA’S STORY
Hamda would often miss vital learning when on her period because she didn’t have access to essential period products and safe toilets at her school “I missed many classes because of that. This affected my education.”
Hamda took part in sessions ran by Plan International, aimed at raising awareness of periods and how to manage them with dignity. Girls and young women were also provided with menstrual hygiene kits. “I am so happy that I got a sanitary kit that I can use now instead of clothing.”
Plan International also built safe toilets at Hamda’s school. “We can now use the toilets in school freely, without any fear. I’m so happy for this,” says Hamda.
You can support more girls like Hamda to access education by becoming a child sponsor today.
