<div><strong>Protect 5 Million Girls Across Africa: A Multi-Year Campaign Through 2030</strong>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>I’m Victoria Boston — a believer and advocate for women’s equity.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>In the fall of 2023, I traveled to Kenya and met a group of high school girls facing an unimaginable reality… <strong>missing five to seven days of school every month simply because they didn’t have access to menstrual supplies.</strong>

</div>

<div><br />

</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/89789637_1772054478202861_r.jpeg" width="100%" />

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Falling behind wasn’t about ability. It was about access.

</div>

<ul>

<li>Some used rags.

</li>

<li>Some used newspapers.

</li>

<li>Some had nothing at all.

</li>

</ul>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Bright, determined girls forced to miss school because of something as natural as their cycle. I knew I could not walk away.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>What began as a mission to support 2,500 girls has grown into something much larger.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>Today, my global campaign, "The Garden of P.", is launching a multi-year effort to raise $2.5 million by 2030 to protect over 5 million girls across Africa.</strong>

</div>

<div><br />

</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/89789637_1772054597642562_r.png" width="100%" />

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>This is Phase 1.</strong> <strong>Here’s how it works:</strong>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Reusable period panties cost just $0.14 each at wholesale.

</div>

<div>Each girl receives three—providing long-lasting, dignified protection.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>With volunteer-led education and community partnerships, we can protect one girl for approximately $0.50.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>That means:

</div>

<ul>

<li><strong>$0.50 protects one girl.</strong>

</li>

<li><strong>$50.00 protects 100 girls.</strong>

</li>

<li><strong>$500.00 protects 1,000 girls.</strong>

</li>

</ul>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>This is extraordinary impact with minimal overhead.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>Why Africa First?</strong>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>While menstrual inequity affects every continent, Africa carries a disproportionate burden. Millions of girls miss school each month due to lack of menstrual products and sanitation access.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>By 2050, 1 in 4 people on Earth will be African.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Protecting Africa’s girls protects the future workforce and global economy.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>What Are Period Panties?</strong>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Period panties are reusable, washable underwear designed with built-in absorbent layers to safely replace disposable pads and tampons.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>They:

</div>

<ul>

<li>Are leak-proof

</li>

<li>Last for years

</li>

<li>Require no monthly repurchasing

</li>

<li>Provide reliable protection in low-resource settings

</li>

</ul>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>For girls without access to affordable menstrual supplies, they offer something simple but powerful:

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Consistency.

</div>

<div>Confidence.

</div>

<div>Dignity.

</div>

<div><br />

</div><img alt="" media_type="3" src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/89789637_1772055037724263_r.png" width="100%" />

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>Why Period Panties?</strong>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Reusable period panties:

</div>

<ul>

<li>Are washable and last for years

</li>

<li>Reduce environmental waste

</li>

<li>Eliminate recurring monthly costs

</li>

<li>Provide dignity and confidence

</li>

</ul>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>This is not a short-term fix.

</div>

<div>It’s a sustainable solution.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>
