The target audience for this episode is EVERYONE
Our guest for today is Charlyn Kirabo, a very lovely 22-year-old young lady from Uganda Africa. She is the founder of Kirabo Women Initiative, pursuing her bachelors in business and finance, and currently running the "She Needs A Pad Project (SNAP) which is aiming at training girls across the country on how to make reusable menstrual pads and also distribute reusable pads in schools and communities. I urge you to listen to her to the end – the issue we are talking about for the young girls of Africa is real and with a negative impact on a whole generation.

These are Key reasons why you should donate and what impact your donations will have:
1. 1. Your donations will enable reusable menstrual pad training to all age groups starting from girls of 10 years old. In essence, we are teaching them to fish so they are never in menstrual poverty ever again. This is the only permanent solution to this problem.
2. Your donations will help end the awful phenomenon in certain parts of Uganda of Sex for Pads. As Charlyn said – girls are so embarrassed in school when they are menstruating and their clothes stain, that they rather give their bodies to older men who take advantage of this fact and give them a few thousand shillings in exchange for sex. The girls in turn use the money they get to buy menstrual pads. It breaks my heart to know that this is happening to so many young girls, our goal should be to get to a point that not a single girl feels the need to get money for pads in this manner. If this stops, so will HIV infections and early pregnancies. So let’s put reusable menstrual pad in every young girl’s hand.
3. Your donations will return self-esteem and self-development to the girls we train, because they will not skip school for a week per month nor will they drop out from school. Realistically you are not only helping these girls but also their generations to come.
Please join me in our first step together towards universal transformation. We are all connected. Let’s use this connectivity and uplift those who need it the most. Let’s build our world the way we want to from the ground up.
I will bring you the next episode of Sharing Life Lessons next Wednesday. Until then, 'be happy, be safe and be blessed'.
