Humanity.
Neutrality.
Impartiality.
Independence.
These are the four principles that guide our humanitarian work in support of people affected by crises; from natural disasters to armed conflict.

"Child marriage and teenage pregnancy is considered a moral stain by @BugandaOfficial and manifests a dumbness of consciousness of the perpetrators" Andrew Adrian Mukiibi, ED @NnabagerekaOrg. #GirlSummitUg || @GNBuganda @cbsfm_ug @bbstvug

It is very important to educate girls because education can mould the life of a woman in a considerable way. She can make correct decisions regarding her career, marriage and family on her own.

Guardians, parents, teachers it's not enough to avail menstrual kits but equally important to train our girls on how to use, care for their bodies & pads.
