Empower Her To Speak!

A menstrual-health and reproductive-health initiative combining products, education and community conversations to reduce stigma and strengthen girls’ dignity.

Project story

Why this project matters

With support from The Pollination Project, Give Hope Uganda delivered a community-led menstrual-health project built around a simple belief: practical local solutions can change what is possible for girls.

By combining menstrual products with health education and conversation, the project addressed both immediate material needs and the stigma that can keep girls silent.
