On 28 May 2025, the world observed World Menstrual Hygiene Day. As part of this global occasion, Addie’s Foundation marked the day with a meaningful intervention across four regions in Ghana: Greater Accra, Ashanti, Western, and Central. It was the day the Foundation carried out the 1 Female 1 Sanitary Pad project.

This annual initiative is designed to improve menstrual hygiene and empower young girls in underprivileged communities and schools. The project reflects Addie’s commitment to social impact through education, access, and advocacy.

The initiative aligns with the Sustainable Development Goals 2030, particularly Goal 3 on good health and well-being, Goal 4 on quality education, and Goal 5 on gender equality.

As part of the project, a detailed menstrual hygiene talk was delivered in each of the four selected regions. These sessions created safe spaces where girls could learn, ask questions, and have their concerns addressed openly and respectfully.
