Caring4Girls

Who are We?

Caring4Girls was founded by Richard Mabaso in 2012 to respond to the reality that millions of girls in South Africa do not go to school because they lack access to sanitary pads and corresponding reproductive health education.

Going forward, Caring4Girls will continue advancing and supporting Menstrual Hygiene Management efforts to ensure that young women are seen and empowered through a holistic and inclusive approach.

9 Provinces within South Africa and in the following African countries:

Our Sanitary Protection Brand

The very first Compassionate brand of pads in South Africa

We are a Compassionate Brand.
What does this mean? Well ask yourself
this question – How, when and where could
we be kinder – to ourselves,
for our business and our consumers and in the world,
and what differences could that make for
all of us today.

Our mission is to transform current sanitary pad collection initiatives into profitable business opportunities through the sale of our ‘business-in-a-box’ that provides economic empowerment and affordable sanitary products to women in low income communities.

Help by supporting our initiative. Promote local manufacturing and empower women caregivers to earn an income that will enable them to take care of their families’ needs and ultimately keep Africa’s girl children in school.

We will also be offering our pads on line to those consumers who wish to click and collect.

I like to see myself as a person who can inspire someone to change or to be better ….. to always follow a dream.

While we are all connected and have so much in common, our experiences of the world are all unique and our individual stories must be acknowledged.

ZOLANI MAHOLA

Most of our resources are still controlled by men, and “culture” is still used as an excuse to perpetuate oppression. I am a feminist because I challenge these norms..

PRUDENCE NOBANTU MABELE

Our lives will only have a meaning if each one of us can confidently say that I was able to bring five, ten, fifteen and twenty women along with me …… do not climb alone!

Girls are the future mothers of our society, and it is important that we focus on their well-being.

Through life, I have learned that the most important critic whose judgement of my actions matters, is my conscience.
