PROGRAM OVERVIEW
In many Tanzanian communities, girls face school absenteeism and health risks due to a lack of menstrual products. We're changing that.
"Before FOCAYO, I would miss school for 4 days every month. Now I never miss a day. I want to be a doctor."
Menstrual health management education for girls in schools across Ilala, Mkuranga, and Dar es Salaam.
2,600+ sanitary pads distributed to ensure dignity and school attendance.
Community discussions to end period stigma and create supportive environments.
Evolving into "He Future Project" creating local jobs for young women through reusable pad production.
In 2024, we reached 1,500 girls with pads and education, resulting in a 17% increase in school attendance.
We are evolving into the "Her Future Project," creating local jobs for young women through the sustainable production of reusable sanitary pads.
Help us keep girls in school and break the silence around menstrual health.
