Did you know...
870,000 girls in Kenya are missing 4 days of school every month due to a lack of sanitary pads and underwear?
Peter Nduati, CEO of Resolution Health, an East African Health Insurance company, calls this a “national crisis.”
ZanaA will be keeping adolescent Kenyan girls in school by first coordinating the current free distribution already taking place, and second by developing environmentally friendly, locally-made sanitary pads, helping girl regain 3.5 million learning days each month.
ZanaAfrica won the 2009 Wharton Africa Business Forum business plan competition. Called "game changing for Africa" by the judges, this win takes ZanaAfrica to the next level in solving a national challenge in a sustainable, replicable way.
We are now seeking contributions for our proof of concept and to run our Empowerment Clubs. Visit www.zanaafrica.org/forever550 to see how with only $550 you or you and your friends/family can join our ZanaA family and make lasting, replicable change in the lives of hundreds of thousands of girls and women.
Coming soon: a new, exciting website design and layout.
