This is not just about hygiene. It is about equality.
Around 30% of women and girls in Liberia cannot consistently afford sanitary products. In rural areas, this number surges to 65%. A girl who misses school several days each month is more likely to fall behind, repeat grades, or drop out entirely. This limits her economic opportunities and reinforces cycles of poverty. Stigma and silence only worsen the struggle; many girls face shame and teasing because they have no safe way to manage a basic human need.
