Period Poverty Campaign
You can play your part in breaking the cycle of period poverty from 14 June to 31 July for as little as R250 to provide pads for a year and enable a girl the opportunity to attend school uninterrupted by their monthly cycle for a whole year. They can then be free to attend school and aim for a brighter future as any young girl should be able to.
The donation will be allocated to the Roedean School (SA) corporate social responsibility partner, Phedišang Community Development Project in Limpopo. Roedean has been in partnership with the Phedišang Community for the last 13 years. Between 9 and 14 August, our Ante-Matric students will further take the lead in a women’s health initiative within the Phedišang Community as the next step to breaking the cycle centred around the girl-child. We are proud to announce that in collaboration with Blossom Care Solutions, in 2023 a total of R17 500 in donations afforded the Phedišang Community 7 000 sanitary pads the equivalent of 3 months’ menstrual supplies for 500 girls. This year, we are appealing to every member of our community to help us to double last year’s donation and amplify the impact Roedean makes in alleviating period poverty.
