Hygiene kit for girls

When escaping violence or natural disasters, girls often must flee at a moment’s notice, travelling for days, alone and empty-handed as they seek refuge. When they arrive, this kit holds so much more than everyday items for them. Soap, a toothbrush and toothpaste can mean less chance of getting sick, protecting her health. Sanitary products like menstrual pads promote hygiene and prevent stigmatization, so she can continue to attend classes, with confidence. A flashlight shines added security when seeking a latrine at night, while a brush and towel maintain her right to human dignity. Filled to the brim with essential basics, this gift helps girls stay strong, carry on and push forward, with their heads held high.
