One Girl. Six Weeks. A Lifetime of Opportunity.
One in ten girls in sub-Saharan Africa misses school every time her period comes. By some estimates, that is nearly 20% of a school year. Many girls stop attending altogether once they start menstruating. Green Girl Foundation exists to change that.

Our Story
A girl who cannot manage her period privately and safely is a girl who skips class, falls behind, and sometimes leaves school entirely. That is not a small problem. It is a crisis with a long tail, and it has been happening quietly for decades.
Green Girl started with a simple idea: show up, listen, and give girls what they need to keep going. We began by distributing menstrual health products and running hygiene sessions in schools and communities. We heard what the girls told us: that they needed more than pads. They needed knowledge, confidence, and someone who believed in them.
