" "Change begins with you"
I aspire to be a Millennium Fellow because I'm driven to create positive change and empower others. Through this fellowship, I aim to amplify my impact, foster meaningful connections, and leverage collective action to address pressing global challenges. By embracing collaboration, creativity, and inclusive leadership, I'm committed to co-creating a brighter future for all. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Pad A Girl
Pad a Girl Project is a menstrual health initiative aimed at addressing the challenges faced by young girls in underserved communities due to inadequate access to menstrual hygiene products. The project focuses on distributing sanitary pads, providing menstrual hygiene education, and offering emotional support to empower girls to attend school with confidence and dignity.
Aligned with SDGs 1 (No Poverty), 3 (Good Health and Well-being), 4 (Quality Education), and 5 (Gender Equality), this initiative seeks to reduce absenteeism in schools, improve menstrual health awareness, and promote gender equity by breaking the stigma surrounding menstruation.
Through our efforts, we aim to create lasting change by ensuring that no girl is held back by a lack of access to basic menstrual health needs.
