Many girls will likely drop out of high school because they are unable to control their monthly cycle. They often try dangerous techniques to stop the bleeding so they can continue attending school, but this causes infections and other diseases. Many don’t understand why they menstruate. Combining education on the female reproductive system with feminine hygiene kits provides powerful tools to help them stay in school. We can stop the cycle of poverty and give them a brighter future. Also, educating them on the male reproductive system and sex helps them understand the risks of being sexually active. This includes understanding unprotected sex that can lead to unwanted pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases.
