Challenge

In Turkana, many children miss school because they lack basic undergarments and sanitary supplies. This lack of essential items leads to intense discomfort, teasing, and shame, causing children especially adolescent girls to drop out of classes. Without proper hygiene support, vulnerable children struggle to focus on their education, trapping them in ongoing cycles of hardship.

Solution

Providing essential undergarments, sanitary supplies, and mentorship restores students' dignity, health, and comfort. With these vital items, children can attend school regularly without shame or interruption. The psychosocial support builds their confidence and emotional resilience, empowering them to stay focused, stay in class, and build a brighter future.

Long-Term Impact

This project creates lasting change by keeping vulnerable children especially girls consistently in school, breaking cycles of missed classes and dropping out. Regular access to hygiene essentials and mentorship builds lifelong self-esteem, emotional resilience, and personal health. Over time, educated and confident students are better equipped to complete their schooling, pursue better opportunities, and lift their families and communities out of hardship.
