The Florence Mensah Foundation and Reflo Company Limited Aids Mepe Residents Affected by the Dam Spillage

In the wake of the devastating Akosombo and Kpong Dam spillage, the residents of Mepe have been grappling with dire circumstances and limited access to basic necessities. Recognising the urgency of the situation, The Florence Mensah Foundation and Reflo Company Limited, stepped forward to extend a helping hand, by donating Reflo’s sanitary pads and diapers to aid the victims.

This philanthropic endeavor was realised in collaboration with Media General’s laudable initiative, the Media General 3 Foundation effort.  An initiative designed to raise funds and gather relief items for the benefit of the victims affected by this tragic event.

The generous contribution by Reflo Company Limited and The Florence Mensah Foundation amounts to a total value of 10,000 Ghana Cedis, provided in the form of high-quality sanitary pads and diapers, essentials that are instrumental in addressing the pressing needs of the victims particularly women.

Anita Akuffo, the esteemed brand ambassador of Reflo’s company limited, expressed her heartfelt sympathy for the victims and emphasised the importance of collective support in times of adversity. She stated, “We sympathise with the victims, and we call on other organisations and individuals to join us in extending their support as well.”

The Florence Mensah Foundation and Reflo Company Limited remain steadfast in their commitment to support any cause aimed at improving the lives of every girl child and woman. This compassionate gesture serves as a shining example of their dedication to bettering the community.

Reflo Company Ltd, in partnership with The Florence Mensah Foundation, has officially completed its landmark “Helping 1000 Girls to Embrace Their Flow initiative, with the final round of sanitary pad distributions carried out in schools in Ashaiman, Nima and Assin Ochiso to commemorate Menstrual Hygiene Day 2025.

Launched in March 2024, the project was a bold commitment to support 1,000 deprived girls with a full year’s supply of high-quality sanitary pads and menstrual health education. One year on, the goal has been achieved — with 1,000 girls now better equipped to manage their menstrual health with dignity and confidence.

Beneficiaries of the project spanned across key communities and schools, including: Assin Ochiso D/A Basic School, Assin Ochiso Heritage Academy, Assin Hasowode D/A Basic School, Kedzi Havedzi A.M.E. Zion Basic School (Volta Region), Ashaiman No. 5B Basic School, Ashaiman No. 4 JHS and Nima Basic School.

The impact of the project extended far beyond distributing sanitary pads. Through school engagements, open conversations and hands-on educational sessions, the Foundation addressed long-standing stigma, corrected misconceptions and empowered young girls to approach their menstrual cycles with confidence, pride and self-assurance.

At the closing ceremony, Ms. Rebecca Osam, CEO of Reflo Company Ltd., remarked:

“Today, as we close this chapter, we are not just ending a project. We are celebrating a milestone — one that signifies progress, sparks awareness, inspires dialogue and lays the foundation for lasting change. To our brilliant young girls, you are strong, you are capable and you are unstoppable. And to everyone gathered here, let us not stop here. Let us continue to support, educate and build a community where our girls can thrive without fear, shame or judgment.”

With the “1000 Girls” project now complete, both Reflo Company Ltd and The Florence Mensah Foundation are urging government agencies, corporate organisations, NGOs and development partners to help scale the initiative nationally, reaching more underserved girls in vulnerable communities.

The success of this project is not just a milestone — it’s a call to action. A call to invest in menstrual equity. A call to shape a future where no girl’s education or dignity is compromised by her period.
