So many girls are falling behind in school because they do not have the means to deal with their periods. They stay away from school and lose about a week’s worth of school a month. The Acholi Girls Fairer Future Project in Uganda aims to address this while also teaching the girls how valuable they are in God’s eyes. We need someone to oversee this project and bring fresh ideas about sustainability in order to increase the reach of this project. Are you the one?
