Displaced women in Miti, Kabare Territory, in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, continue to face difficult living conditions and limited access to essential hygiene supplies. For many of these women, obtaining basic items such as soap, sanitary pads, and buckets remains a daily challenge. These shortages can increase the risk of illness, affect menstrual hygiene, and undermine their dignity and well-being. In response to these needs, our project, Supporting Hygiene and Dignity for Displaced Women, aims to provide 200 displaced women with essential hygiene kits and practical information on personal hygiene, household sanitation, menstrual health, and disease prevention.
The project is currently in its preparation and fundraising phase. We are identifying qualified trainers and potential participants to help ensure that the planned activities respond to the real needs of the women and are implemented effectively. Our total fundraising target is $15,000, and we have received $20 in donations so far. Although this is only the beginning, every contribution represents a step toward making this initiative possible. Once sufficient resources have been mobilized, the project will move forward with the distribution of hygiene kits and the organization of awareness sessions.
Through this initiative, we hope to improve the health, dignity, and living conditions of 200 displaced women. Beyond providing essential supplies, we want to encourage safer hygiene practices, reduce preventable health risks, and help women regain a sense of confidence and security during a difficult period in their lives. We are deeply grateful to GlobalGiving for providing a platform that connects our project with a wider community of international donors and supporters. We also sincerely thank everyone who has already contributed to this effort.
We now invite individuals, organizations, and compassionate partners to join us in supporting this meaningful initiative. Every donation, regardless of its size, can help bring us closer to our $15,000 goal and enable us to reach women who urgently need assistance. Together, we can help restore dignity, protect health, and bring hope to displaced women in Miti. With the continued support of our donors and the collaboration of GlobalGiving, we believe that this project can make a lasting and positive difference in the lives of the women and families we aim to serve.
