Launching our Female Health & Hygiene program

Forty women and girls now receive monthly hygiene kits, helping girls attend school with confidence.

On 11 November 2022 SKF launched its Female Health & Hygiene program at the Multan Learning Center.

Staff surveyed families and selected 40 women and girls: SKF students and the mothers, sisters and aunts in their households. At the launch session they learned about health and hygiene, and each received a cloth bag with sanitary pads and soap. Every month since, they have received a new hygiene kit.

The results are clear: girls in the program attend school more regularly and feel more confident during their monthly period.
