EMPOWERHER
Bridging Health and Hygiene for Girls in Africa
Project EmpowerHer aims to address two critical aspects of girls' well-being in Africa—vaccination against HPV and access to menstrual hygiene. By synergizing efforts, VARFA will not only focus on HPV vaccinations but also provide sustainable menstrual hygiene solutions through the distribution of menstrual cups.
"Breaking the chains of menstruation poverty in Africa is not just a cause; it's a call for empowerment. Through the EmpowerHer project, we strive to provide dignity, access, and education, ensuring that no woman is held back by the limitations of menstruation. Together, we create a future where every girl can embrace her potential, unburdened by the shackles of period poverty."

MENSTRUAL CUPS
Menstrual cups offer several advantages in resource-limited settings. They are cost-effective, reusable, and environmentally friendly, providing a sustainable solution for girls who may struggle to afford disposable hygiene pads. Additionally, menstrual cups have a longer lifespan, reducing the frequency and cost of replacements compared to traditional menstrual products. This can empower girls by providing a more economical and reliable means of managing their menstrual hygiene.
