Beso is a non-profit organization that services children and women who have little opportunity’s to have access to education, health and economic progress through agriculture. As partner we have improved the situation of school kitchen to feed more children ,offer workshops for teachers, distribute AFRIpads for the girls and buy schoolbooks.

AFRIPADS
Afripads Ltd is a social business with 160 fair jobs which produces reusable sanitary pads to provide women and girls a sustainable, hygienical solution during their periods.
Unable to afford proper menstrual products the school girls are often ashamed and stay away from school, fall back in their knowledge or leave school completely and rely on crude, improvised materials like clothing or pieces of foam matress.
With Afripads, we already could help the teachers and girls of St. Marks School in Wanteete. They were so happy!
