In a groundbreaking initiative, Perfect Symphony and the Next Generation Capacity Building Forum recently partnered with Faith Elite College in Glenview to promote menstrual hygiene and body awareness among young girls.
Over 100 students gathered for the event, which aimed to break the silence surrounding menstruation and address common misconceptions.
Perfect Symphony Founder and menstrual health advocate, Tate Makayi, led the discussion, emphasising the importance of hormone awareness and its impact on menstrual health.
“Understanding your body is empowering,” Makayi said.
“Girls should know that their periods are a natural part of life and embrace them, rather than shy away.”
The event combined education with practical support, as Perfect Symphony and the Next Generation Capacity Building Forum donated over 100 packs of sanitary pads to the girls, combating period poverty.
Tatenda Cole, representing the Next Generation Capacity Building Forum, underscored their commitment to supporting girls’ health and well-being.
“We recognize the importance of decent menstrual health services and sanitary products,” he said, highlighting alignment with Sustainable Development Goal 3.
This collaboration marks a significant step toward empowering young women with knowledge, resources, and support.
The event fostered a sense of community and solidarity, encouraging girls to embrace their femininity and advocate for their health.
By combining education and community support, Perfect Symphony and its partners are nurturing the next generation of strong, informed, and empowered women.
