Provide sanitary supplies for teen girls!
Petition published by The Female Assistance Project on Jan 23, 2011
Target: Ministry of HEALTH
Region: Kenya
Web site: http:// www.thefap.org
Petition Background (Preamble):
The anticipation and reality of transition into teenage years is challenging for girls. Research cites menstruation and its associated symptoms as the principal disadvantage of being a teenage girl.
Without proper sanitary products and care, the challenge is more prevalent and affects schooling and participation in sporting activities. Girls from less fortunate families are at risk of withdrawal and even could face infections.
