Ending Period Poverty. Restoring Dignity. Empowering Girls.
About Us
Pad-Up Africa is a non-profit organisation established in 2017 born out of passion and a sense of responsibility toward curbing the deficits knowledge gap and skills set on good menstrual hygiene management among adolescent girls and women in Africa.
Perturbed by UNESCO findings that one out of ten girls in sub-Sahara Africa misses school due to menstruation, Pad-Up Africa through sanitary sensitization has continued to device practical ways to change the narrative within the shortest possible time.
