Alison and Benta attended a Christian Conference for women (
Colour Sisterhood) and came away inspired to do something for women in our community and helping women who needed help in other communities.
We prayed about what form our plan should take and then we heard about Days for Girls and knew this was what we wanted to do.
As women, we knew the nuisance and potential embarrassment of a period starting when we were unprepared - but that an inability to be prepared led to the girls missing about 25% of their education was something we had never considered - we wanted to do something that would make a difference.
