MENSTRUATION DAY IN SAMBURU

This past May, The Samburu Project partnered with the Kaka Empire Foundation to create the first menstrual hygiene day event designed specifically for Samburu girls in Wamba. Through their Sanitary Bank Campaign, the Kaka Empire Foundation received donations from Always and Kim-Fay Africa. While the initial target was 722 girls, an additional 600 girls also benefited from free product for a year. Along with his partners, Always and Kim-Fay Africa, their mission is to ensure that 100,000 marginalized girls stay in school. Their message was received loud and clear on May 28th when they came to Wamba to distribute sanitary products and discuss girls’ confidence. Traditionally Samburu girls do not have resources to purchase sanitary products resulting in a monthly absence from school. The shame of their menstruation combined with the constant disruption in their studies creates a toll on their education and confidence. King Kaka and his partners realize that this is an easily solvable problem and set out to solve it. The products and message about healthy menstruation were excitedly received by the girls. Education for girls has doubled in The Samburu Project’s well communities. Now that they are in school, they face new challenges but with passionate partners like King Kaka, Always and Kim-Fay Africa, they are finding new ways to shine!
