Mama Ibado Charity on Saturday donated sanitary pads and under garments to more than 300 vulnerable girls in Kakamega County to keep them in school. The Charity organization whose operations are located in Kakamega and Isiolo, said its latest donation will ensure that the girl child continues to stay in school. In Kenya, young girls have been victims of absenteeism and potential school drop outs due to lack of sanitary pads. "Our goal is to ensure that Mama Ibado Charity plays a role in ending period poverty among the girl child. I call upon like-minded individuals and organizations to join this movement of empowering the girl child."
