" My passion for helping others and making a positive impact in my community has driven me to seek out opportunities where I can contribute to meaningful change. The Millennium Fellowship offers an ideal platform to collaborate with like-minded individuals who are committed to addressing pressing global challenges.
I am particularly drawn to the program's focus on social impact and leadership development. I believe that through the Fellowship, I will gain valuable skills and insights that will enable me to effectively advocate for and implement initiatives that improve the lives of those in need. The opportunity to learn from and work alongside a diverse group of peers who share my commitment to social justice is one that I eagerly look forward to.
I am confident that the Millennium Fellowship will equip me with the tools and networks necessary to make a lasting difference, and I am excited about the possibility of contributing to this inspiring community. Thank you. "
Millennium Fellowship Project: Teen Girls' Health And Hygiene
Our project, Teens’ girl health and hygiene empowered 30 teenage girls in an internally displaced people camp through education, resources, and storytelling, addressing their often-overlooked needs in sexual and reproductive health, and overall well-being.
Based on need based assessment from the community leader and the girls, we grew plants by ourself and nutured them till it was time for the project and the plants were given to the girls in view of starting smallcommunity farms.
We also educated them on menstrual hygiene, Sexual and reproductive health and hand wasing.
We concluded by story telling and sharing female products and clothings.
