Chelyn Foundation Takes Boss Girl Pad Drive to Titimet Primary, Empowers Girls in Endebess
Girls at Titimet Primary School in Endebess, Trans Nzoia County, have received a major boost in menstrual health support following a sanitary pad donation drive by the Chelyn Foundation.
The Boss Girl Pad Drive, organized by the foundation, brought together pupils, teachers, foundation representatives and community members to promote menstrual hygiene while encouraging girls to remain confident and focused on their education.
Speaking during the event, Chelyn Foundation founder Lindah Chebet Gomez stressed the importance of ensuring that menstruation does not become a barrier to girls' education.
She said communities have a responsibility to support girls by ensuring they have access to essential menstrual hygiene products and accurate information to help them manage their periods with dignity.
The initiative provided sanitary pads to schoolgirls while also creating awareness on menstrual hygiene, self-confidence and the importance of staying in school throughout the menstrual cycle.
Teachers and school representatives welcomed the programme, noting that menstrual health support can help girls remain comfortable, participate fully in school activities and concentrate on their studies.
Beyond the distribution of sanitary pads, the Boss Girl Pad Drive sought to encourage the girls to believe in themselves, pursue their education and overcome challenges that could hinder their progress.
The Chelyn Foundation also called on parents, schools, community leaders and well-wishers to work together in promoting the welfare, education and empowerment of the girl child.
The foundation said access to menstrual hygiene products is not only a health issue but also an important factor in protecting girls' dignity and supporting their continued education.
The Titimet Primary School initiative forms part of the wider campaign for increased investment in menstrual health and girl-child empowerment, with stakeholders urged to ensure no girl misses school simply because she cannot afford sanitary products.
The event was anchored on a simple message: **“Every girl deserves dignity, confidence and an equal opportunity to learn.”**
Through the Boss Girl Pad Drive, the Chelyn Foundation reaffirmed its commitment to supporting girls and creating an environment where they can stay in school, pursue their dreams and reach their full potential.
