Dr Taheera Hassim Visits Diepsloot Secondary School with the My Cup Team

On the 16th of April 2021, Dr Taheera Hassim visited Diepsloot Secondary School with the My Cup Team and reached out to 138 girls in grade 11.

They facilitated an educational session with these young ladies enlightening them about the streamlined menstrual cups made of silicone which could possibly be a life changer in the long run.

She kept the students interested and inspired throughout the programme and left them with some hope for better days to come. The menstrual health management being one of South Africa’s biggest issues, not to mention that many of these children come from poverty stricken homes. We at WMO will continue to strive towards fulfilling the basic human rights of our ladies and allowing them to seek another fundamental right to education without any hindrance.

This project is solely maintained by the generous LILLAH donations of our supporters and we would like to thank you for helping us make the difference.
