About Heading
In July 2026, GLY Empowerment traveled to Angels on Mission School and Goldspring School in Lagos, Nigeria to host our Stepping into Bloom Wellness and Empowerment Workshop for girls aged 9-18.
Our team worked with 82 girls in total covering topics including: menstrual health, puberty education, hygiene, personal boundaries, STEM exploration, life skills, goal setting, self-confidence, and group leadership activities.
Every girl who attended left with: sanitary pads, workbook, new friendships, practical knowledge about her body, and the confidence to ask questions she had never been able to ask before.
This program was made possible by the generosity of our donors and the dedication of our volunteer team.
This is what your support makes possible.
Menstrual Cycle Lesson
We educated the girls about menstruation such as, calculating days, normal and abnormal symptoms and how to use a pad.
Puberty Session
We educated girls at both school that puberty is a normal part of growing up and they should never feel ashamed.
Lesson on Boundaries
We provided practical examples of what boundaries are, how to set them, and respect boundaries set by others they interact with.
Leadership Building
Girls do not just attend our programme. They leave knowing they are capable of leading.
Your Voice is Your Power
Girls were empowered and taught, their voice is their Power! They should never be ashamed to speak up and share their thoughts, opinions, questions and answers.
Menstrual and Workbooks
Every girl leaves with a menstrual health kit and an activity workbook to continue learning at home.
