Hello from Nigeria! Today, Prince Harry and Meghan, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, visited Lightway Academy in Abuja, Nigeria to launch it

"In 2023, The Archewell Foundation supported girls’ education and health in Nigeria, collaborating with The GEANCO Foundation to send school supplies and menstrual products to 2,500 girls in the region, addressing their critical needs and contributing to long-term, sustainable solutions in their lives.

"An estimated 37 million women and girls in Nigeria experience period poverty, unable to access or afford menstrual hygiene products. As a result, millions of girls in the country miss school every month, crippling their educational advancement.

"The Duke and Duchess will continue to support this prolific partnership with The GEANCO Foundation by providing hygiene products to 1,500 girls and pregnant women through their Foundation.

"We are pleased to announce the expansion of this partnership to include mental health resources and training for teenage girls and boys across Nigeria, where like so many other counties, stigma still has a stronghold. With this expansion, GEANCO will hold summits designed to provide the necessary information, skills, and coping mechanisms to thrive.

"The foundation thanks the Lightway Academy and Abuja community for their gracious and warm welcome to Nigeria."

As students around the world returned to school this month, The Archewell Foundation supported girls’ education and health by sending school supplies and menstrual products to young scholars in Nigeria with The GEANCO Foundation.

GEANCO provides critical health care and education services in Nigeria. Its David Oyelowo Leadership Scholarship provides full tuition, medical care, and social and emotional support to young female victims of terrorism and gender inequality in Nigeria.

Afam Onyema, CEO of GEANCO, joined the Archewell staff to help fill backpacks with supplies and menstrual products. AWF’s support will also provide menstrual health education for 2,500 girls in the region GEANCO serves, supporting the health and well-being of girls pursuing their education.

Can you please also signal boost the fundraising done in Daisy's name? It'll be good for everyone to see that reylos are channeling the negativity to different charities and that the narrative that JB and his fans are writing is the complete opposite! It's also for a good cause so... :D

Hey Nonnie,

I have been on here and twitter, but for anyone who hasn’t seen it, there was also a fundraiser started for a charity that Daisy supports, as a thank you from the fans.

The fundraiser is for GEANCO and it’s almost at 5k, which is really close to its goal! Just need a little more to get there :) Here’s some more info from the Gofundme page:

…The GEANCO Foundation was selected as it was Daisy’s charity of choice for her Omaze campaign for The Rise of Skywalker. The charity’s aim is to “save and transform the lives of the poor and vulnerable in Africa.“Any money will go towards their work in the region:"We lead special surgical missions and run maternal and infant health programs in Nigeria. We also donate critical supplies to schools while providing life-changing scholarships to young female victims of terrorism and gender inequality."You can find more information about the foundation on their website: geanco.org

And the link if you’d like to support this cause. Reblogs are appreciated!
