Some months ago a discussion started on Nabuur about girls in Kabondo, Kenya not being able to attend school during their period; a common problem in many parts of the developing world. Disposable pads are very expensive and alternatives don't seem to exist for most girls. They often just stay home for the 5-10 days per month that they have they period, rather than be embarrassed. This cuts heavily into their education. ( To see past discussion visit http://www.nabuur.com/en/village/kabondo/project/task/feminine-hygiene-p...)

Hi there

Can you look for resources that can help with the awareness and sensitization programme? Even if you only have an hour or two to spare it would be of great help. Please look over the task goals and then research on the INTERNET. Resources specifically designed for or aimed at Kenya are especially useful but anything that is related to the topic at hand.

Please attach web pages or documents to your message or send them to me or to George Onyango

Thanks for your time

Gillian

Hello

Can anyone search the INTERNET to look for funders that fund small/medium nutrition and health care programme in Kenya. Some funders may fund Malaria medicines for example, HIV/AIDS meicines, nutritional and general programmmes. If you can even spend half an hour and write down the web addresses this would be extremely helpful to the project. You can then send them to me to be added to the funding organizations document or you can add them to a Word doc and attach to a message on this task. Your assistance in invaluable.

Nairobi Eastlands (NESC) has a large bank of potential funding / support organisations listed in the resource section (right hand column). These organisations were selected because they are organisations which have a similar focus to NESC in some way or another. However, it is time to prioritise these according to their potential /liklihood to fund NESC.

Research questions to help are:
i) Does the organsation have a profile in Kenya?
ii) Does their philosophy/focus fit with NESC?
iii) Do they provide actual funding, capital or resources directly?
