To mark the UN International
Day of the Girl Child, today the Western Cape Social Development MEC, Albert
Fritz, pledged support for the caring4Girls campaign in partnership with
Dischem.
MEC Fritz visited the Dischem
store in Canal Walk Shopping Centre and donated sanitary pads towards the
initiative.
Fritz says “Today it’s very
significant that we are donating sanitary towels on the day of the Girl Child
and together with the partnership of Dischem we want to promote project dignity
which basically speaks to affording a human right specifically for young girls
in our rural areas when they menstruate to have dignity. As government together
with the private sector and ordinary community people we will continue to do
that.”
