On Thursday, June 6th, 2024, Reflo Company Ltd proudly partnered with The Florence Mensah Foundation to make a meaningful impact on the lives of young girls in Assin Ochiso, located in the central region of Ghana. The collaborative effort was part of the foundation’s transformative ‘1000 Girls’ project aimed at empowering girls through access to menstrual hygiene products.
Mr. Jacob Sereboah, the head teacher of Assin Ochiso D/C Junior High School, extended a warm welcome to the foundation’s representatives and Reflo Company Ltd, introducing them to the gathered community members.
Madam Florence Mensah, the esteemed founder of the Florence Mensah Foundation, delivered an impassioned address, emphasising the importance of providing sanitary pads to young girls. She highlighted the initiative’s critical role in safeguarding girls from exploitation and empowering them to pursue their dreams without the hindrance of menstruation-related challenges.
Adding to the sentiment, the Managing Director of Reflo Company Ltd expressed their commitment to the well-being of African women and girls, affirming that they deserve the best care and support.
Following this generous gesture, the Reflo’s Ladies conducted an informative health talk on menstrual hygiene, offering valuable insights into pad usage and disposal techniques to maintain cleanliness and prevent staining. Practical demonstrations underscored the importance of proper hand washing and garment care.
In a poignant theatrical performance, students depicted the challenges faced by families in affording sanitary products, often resorting to makeshift solutions like “Amoasin” or “Ntoma” (cloth). Their heartfelt gratitude extended to both Reflo Company Ltd and The Florence Mensah Foundation and for their compassionate initiative. The event concluded with the distribution of a six-month supply of Reflo’s sanitary pads to 213 menstruating girls, reinforcing the commitment of both organisations to improving the lives of young girls in the community. Mr. Sereboah, on behalf of the entire school community, expressed sincere appreciation for the enduring impact of the Florence Mensah Foundation and Reflo Company Ltd. Both organisations affirmed their commitment to ongoing support, ensuring a brighter future for girls in Ochiso and beyond.
