My happiest moment came when the Community Development Officer called my mum informing her of an opportunity where they needed girls to come and get free practical skills in candle making, liquid soap making and making of reusable sanitary pads
among others. I used to have no money at all, whenever a problem came up I was always helpless.
Today I’m able to earn a living and save some money all because Nile girls forum gave us these skills. Also nowadays when I get into my periods I just pick some of the reusable pads that I made and save the money I could have spent for other emergencies. I hope to pass on the skills I’ve learnt to other needy girls to help them earn a living.
