" "I'm passionate about making a real difference in the lives of children and promoting mental health in my community. Being part of the Millennium Fellowship excites me because it’s a chance to grow, connect with others who care about impact, and turn ideas into real solutions. I'm looking forward to learning, sharing, and creating meaningful change—starting locally, but with a global vision." "
Millennium Fellowship Project: PAD A GIRL
**Pad A Girl** is a menstrual health outreach project carried out during the 2025 Millennium Fellowship. It focuses on educating secondary school girls about menstrual hygiene, body changes, and confidence. The project addresses stigma, misinformation, and the challenges many girls face during their periods. Led by Adebanji Olamide with support from dedicated volunteers, Pad A Girl creates a safe learning space while promoting SDG 3, 4, and 5. The goal is simple: to help every girl manage her period with dignity, knowledge, and pride.
