According to UNICEF 2007 report, A girl who is absent from school for 4 days every month loses 13 learning days which is equivalent to 2 weeks of learning in every school term. A girl in primary school between grades 6 and 8 (3 years) loses approximately 18 weeks out of 108 school weeks. • A girl in high school (4 years) loses 156 learning days which is equivalent to almost 24 weeks out of 144 weeks of school.
This is a clear indication that a girl child is a school drop-out while still in school.
In some urban slums girls are known to dig through garbage dumps looking for used sanitary towels which they wash and reuse. We have knowledge in some rural areas within Kiambu County where girls are known to use leaves, dirty rags etc. Some girls share their sanitary towels (usually scrap cloth) with their mothers. All of these practices exposes them to diseases, discomfort, loss of dignity. FOHYIG have been actively responding to this need by soliciting donations from well wishers and supply the needy girls with sanitary towels and under pants.
The project also educate young women on HIV/Aids transmission and prevention aiming at reduction of HIV prevalence which is almost 3 times higher on women than men in Sub-Saharan Africa.
The program will strive to ensure needy girls remain in school during their menses therefore providing them with sanitary towels and undergarments and hygiene education.
UNAIDS have estimated that around three quarters of all women with HIV live in sub-Saharan Africa yet there scantly are exclusive women target measures to reverse this, many project here conduct an all inclusive HIV/Aids education some of which is irrelevant to women’s vulnerability. This project will exclusively target sexually active women in active HIV/Aids education prevention and transmission. The project will employ use of men in reaching out to other men urging them to support measures that reduce women’s HIV/Aids vulnerability.
-Providing Sanitary towels & undergarments to poor women
