31st May 2024: <\/strong>Chair of the Board & MD Rita Kavashe donated annual dignity packs to Forms 3 and 4 girls from Kiwalwa Secondary School in the marginalized region of Taita Taveta County.\u202f <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This gesture ensures that over 50 girls will attend school every day and sit for their exams. This was in commemoration of World Menstrual Hygiene Day, which falls on 28th May every year.\u202f <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Approximately 65% of Kenyan girls are affected by menstrual poverty, lacking access to sanitary products and adequate facilities for menstrual hygiene management. This issue significantly impacts their education, health, and overall well-being. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
