Handwashing Stations   

 

June 2020

 

We support community members who are doing their part to contribute to the containment of COVID-19 in Liberia. We applaud the volunteers who man handwashing stations at the entrances to their communities and provide soap and water for everyone entering their community, often relying on their own resources. We donated packages containing soap, face masks, rice, oil, mackerel and maggi cubes to handwashing station volunteers in several communities around Monrovia including Devine Town, Central Community, Lakpazee,  12th Street Block 4, and 12 Street Blocks A-F to support their efforts. 

Medical Supplies   

March 2021

What is period poverty?

 

Period poverty is the inability to afford and access menstrual products, sanitation facilities, and education to manage menstrual health. This has major negative impact on the lives of affected women and girls. They may have to miss school and work during their monthly period and may be at increased risk of infection from use of inappropriate menstrual products.
