Cocktail With A Cause
The Cocktail With A Cause acts as a crowdsourcing Platform and a great forum for advocacy on the matter. Despite the different parties’ interventions, we still have 6 out of 10 girls missing classes today due to menses.
At Young Jewels, we believe that every menstrual period should be an equally a ‘Feel Great’ experience for all women from all walks of life. We hereby supply sanitary towels to need girls in Primary schools as a class retention strategy
Join us as we fill our Pad Bank and keep a girl in Class!
