equal opportunities to strive for greatness.
About Faith Flow Foundation
Faith Flow Foundation is a dedicated youth charity committed to educating and empowering girls in primary and secondary schools in Ghana, West Africa. Our focus includes providing sanitary pads to adolescent girls, fundraising efforts, offering educational resources, and sharing impactful success stories.
The birth of Faith Flow Foundation, on 13th May 2024 by Abigail Lanne simply started out as a birthday
outreach to share sanitary pads to adolescent school girls of an under privileged society, identify mentees and
to reiterate the power of education and the limitless potential a girl child can attain with education. This was
a huge success and the joy and gratitude of the girls was priceless.
It was shocking to learn from the girls that most of them cannot afford to purchase sanitary pads and as such
resort to using cloth rags in place of sanitary towels. This stems from the fact that the parents of these girls
are either unemployed or operating small scale farming which brings little to no income.
It is also worth noting that women and girls in Ghana still battle with period poverty. A research by the BBC published on 11 August 2023 which compared the minimum wage in Ghana to average spend on sanitary pads, reveal that a woman in Ghana earning a minimum wage of $26 a month would have to spend $3, or one in every $7 they make to buy two packets of sanitary towels containing eight pads. This is expensive for the average Ghanaian women and a lot of households cannot afford to provide same for their adolescent girl child. The negative effects of this includes school absenteeism as the girl child will stay out of school during their time of the month, there are also several health risks that can arise when girls use unsafe alternatives such as old clothes, leaves, etc.
Join us in raising awareness, collecting donations, distributing sanitary pads, and making a difference in the lives of young girls.
