Gift a Kit Appeal

Together we reached our goal! A big thanks to everyone who generously donated to our Gift a Kit appeal. We reached our original target for enough hygiene kits for 212 girls in two schools in Kapilvastu. We distributed them in September 2022 – see the video.

The further donations which we received after September 2022 will be allocated to other locations where we work, as the need arises.
