Transforming lives in Ethiopia
Transforming lives in Ethiopia
Watch our animations to see just how important supporting young girls can be for lifelong change…
The formative years of girls’ lives are so important for shaping the women they become. In Ethiopia, these years are even more vital. Put simply, if we are able to protect girls from the trauma of female genital mutilation (FGM) and continue working to keep girls in school by supplying a simple reusable period pack we can ensure long-term change starts, one girl at a time.
With your help, girls can transform their lives, families, and communities for generations to come.
They promote equality, create opportunities, give women and girls choices over their bodies and a voice to speak for themselves. They work to prevent harmful practices like FGM and child marriage, and to stop violence against women and girls. By educating communities they create long-term change for future generations.
When a young girl is protected from FGM and given a reusable period pack she…
…is less likely to drop out of school…
…will have a better education…
…is able to earn and manage an income…
…makes informed decisions about her own health…
…creates long-term change for future families and communities!
