On Friday, November 8, 2024, the CREED Foundation team, led by the visionary Mr. Valentine Okwuchukwu, embarked on a meaningful and impactful outreach at Community Secondary School Awgbu, located in the Orumba South Local Government Area of Anambra State. This visit marked the November edition of our PAD-A-GIRL-CHILD PROJECT 2.
The project, which has become a cornerstone of our commitment to empowering young girls, is specifically designed to address the critical issue of menstrual health and hygiene. We recognized the importance of ensuring that young girls have access to the resources and education they need to manage their menstrual cycles with dignity and confidence. By providing the sanitary pads, we not only offered practical support, but also fostered an environment of respect and empowerment that encouraged these young girls to thrive, both academically and personally.
During this event, the CREED Foundation team distributed sanitary pads to the students of Community Secondary School Awgbu, ensuring that every girl received the necessary products to manage her menstrual health with ease and comfort. This act of giving is part of our broader mission to break down the barriers that often hinder girls in underserved communities from reaching their full potential, particularly when it comes to health, education, and self-esteem.
Our initiative goes beyond the mere distribution of sanitary pads. It is about creating awareness, dispelling the stigma surrounding menstruation, and equipping young girls with the knowledge and tools they need to care for their bodies in a safe, hygienic, and sustainable manner. We believe that access to proper menstrual hygiene products is not a privilege—it is a fundamental right, and no girl should ever be held back because of a lack of basic resources.
Through this project, we are building a supportive and inclusive community where young girls are encouraged to aim higher, pursue their dreams, and be proud of who they are. We envision a future where every girl, no matter where she comes from, has the tools, the support, and the opportunities to succeed and to make a positive impact on her world.
We remain deeply committed to expanding this initiative to more schools, communities, and regions in the coming months and years to come together with the unwavering support of our donors, partners, and volunteers. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has supported this cause, and we look forward to your continued partnership in making this initiative even more impactful. Thank you for believing in the power of empowering young girls and for helping to create a brighter, healthier future for all.
