Inspire Today Foundation marks International Day of the Girl Child with over 4,000 girls in Bolgatanga East

Inspire Today Foundation, has marked this years International Day of the Girl Child with menstruating girls in the Bolgatanga East District of the Upper East Region.

The Girls numbering over 4,000 were provided sanitary pads, deodorants, bathing soap, underpants and educational materials.

According to founder of the NGO, Etornam Sey, there must be a greater collaboration between all stakeholders for the greater good of the adolescent girl.

‘‘Our visit to Bolgatanga East has been very revealing. The area is poverty endemic and the parents here can barely afford a decent meal. It is therefore not okay for government to slap as much as 45per cent tax on sanitary pads. The girls cannot afford it and they continue to use rags for their monthly flow. We are appealing to government to revisit the conversation on tax on sanitary pads in order for the girl child to have a dignified menstruation.’’

She adds that the visit to Bolgatanga was made possible due to the support from individuals and corporate institutions such as Mabia Microfinance, MTN Ghana foundation, Blue Sky Hotel, Adwinsa publications, Asempa publishers and print publishers.

General Manager for Mabia Microfinance, Duncan Alolga, expressed satisfaction at the turn of events with the donation exercise. He admits that the intervention is timely and is significant in the lives of the girls in the community.
