Founders

Valentina Akosua Opoku

“THE GIRL PROJECT was founded due to my personal experience with #Periodpoverty. As a young lady in the University of Ghana, there were several months I had to skip lectures, tutorials etc., as I could not afford sanitary pads during my menstrual days. And days that I really had to go, I used toilet rolls as a substitute.

Due to my experience, I always wanted to support underprivileged School Girls. Upon research, I realized that Period Poverty was actually a major problem affecting thousands of young girls in rural areas in Ghana, and this situation interferes with their education and performance. And I knew I definitely had to do something about it.”

Yolanda Boehi

I always wanted to support a worthy cause from a very young age. So when Valentina told me about THE GIRL PROJECT, and how underprivileged School Girls lives could be transformed with something as little as sanitary pads, I knew I wanted to be part of This great initiative.

I am truly happy and grateful that together with everyone who supports us we can make a difference in young people’s lives.
