What We Do

At Ignite Her Future, we take action where it matters most — in schools, communities, and villages across Africa. Our programs are designed to break the barriers young women face and give them the confidence, education, and dignity they deserve.

1. Battling Period Poverty

We provide access to safe, affordable, and sustainable menstrual products to girls who need them most. Beyond distribution, we run workshops that break the silence around menstruation, teaching both girls and boys that periods are natural, not shameful.

2. Keeping Girls in School

Too many girls drop out of school because of missed days during their periods. We partner with schools to create safe, supportive environments where girls can stay in class year-round. By removing this barrier, we keep dreams alive and futures within reach.

3. Empowering Through Education

We believe empowerment goes beyond access to pads. Our leadership and mentorship programs equip young women with life skills, confidence, and knowledge to become changemakers in their own communities.

4. Building Community Awareness

We engage parents, teachers, and community leaders to challenge harmful myths and cultural stigmas around menstruation and girlhood. Change happens when entire communities stand together for dignity and equality.

5. Sustainable Solutions

We invest in training women and local entrepreneurs to produce reusable sanitary products, creating both economic opportunities and long-term impact in the fight against period poverty.
