TESTIMONIES
MARIE
“Before joining Nguvu Ya Africa, I had no idea what menstruation was or how to manage it. But through Nguvu Ya Africa’s workshops, I learned about hygiene, using sanitary pads and how to make them, and even how to track my cycle. Now, I feel confident and empowered every month.”
FATOU
“Nguvu Ya Africa taught me that menstruation is a natural process and nothing to be ashamed of. They provided us with menstrual hygiene kits and taught us how to properly dispose of used sanitary products. I’m grateful for their support and guidance.”
SARAH
“Growing up, I had no one to talk to about education, a space to discuss and learn about personal growth especially as women in today’s community. Nguvu Ya Africa changed that by organizing sessions where we could openly discuss our experiences and concerns. Now, I feel more knowledgeable and prepared for more opportunities and to teach other girls around me.”
