RUSH MY GIFT [[link removed]?]

The stigma surrounding menstruation in Kenya is pervasive, often leading to exclusion, discrimination, and missed opportunities among girls. Without reproductive education, many girls stay home from school or even drop out because they don’t understand what is happening to them.

UNFPA is shifting community attitudes towards menstruation. Here, adolescent girls and boys in Kakuma refugee camp watch a screening of Impure — a film challenging deep-seated menstrual stigma, one community at a time.

Contraceptives in the region are starting to dwindle in public hospitals. Limited access to menstrual hygiene products exacerbate this issue, affecting school attendance and personal well-being.

Ensuring access to both is a fundamental aspect of reproductive health, granting women control over their bodies and futures. Without immediate intervention, this basic right is slipping away for far too many.

This makes UNFPA Dignity Kits a lifeline. Each kit includes essential items such as sanitary pads, soap, and basic clothing. By providing Dignity Kits, contraceptives, and reproductive health information, we are addressing immediate needs, helping to dismantle stigma, and empowering women and girls to manage their periods safely and with dignity.

Health workers in rural areas of Kenya have worked for years to build outreach and supply systems to empower women to access these resources. But now, stocks are running out.

The impact of your generosity is profound. Stand with us in this critical effort to uplift the women and girls of Kenya by making a contribution today. Together, we can make a lasting difference. [[link removed]?]
