Sanitary Pads Drive
The DJ Strauss Foundation tackles a critical issue impacting millions of girls’ education in South Africa: period poverty. Statistics show a staggering 4 million girls between 13 and 19, prime years for schooling, lack access to basic sanitary products. This directly affects their ability to stay in school, with absenteeism linked to poor menstrual hygiene management reaching 25% annually. That’s a week of missed classes every month, hindering their academic progress.
