In a significant step toward improving the lives of schoolchildren, She's STEM Foundation has successfully constructed modern toilet facilities at Baliama Public School and Catholic Primary School Yangben. This initiative aims to provide students, especially girls, with access to sanitation facilities that ensure their dignity and health.
The newly built toilets are a game-changer for the schools, benefiting approximately 600 pupils by improving their access to sanitation and promoting better hand hygiene practices. These facilities not only enhance the school environment but also empower girls, allowing them to attend school without the fear or embarrassment of inadequate sanitation.
Access to clean and safe toilets is essential for students' well-being and academic success. The facilities encourage regular attendance, particularly among girls, who often face challenges related to menstrual hygiene in schools lacking proper sanitation. By addressing these issues, the She's STEM Foundation is making strides toward gender equality in education.
This project aligns with the Foundation's mission to create a supportive learning environment where every child can thrive. With the construction of these toilets, the Foundation hopes to inspire other communities to invest in essential sanitation facilities for their schools.
The impact of this initiative is already being felt, with improved attendance rates and greater participation amongst pupils especially girls. As the Foundation moves forward, it remains dedicated to fostering environments where every child can learn and grow with dignity.
