Meta
Transaction,
a
leading
financial
broker
allowing
its
customers
to
Trade
Forex,
Stocks,
Commodities,
Crypto
and
Indices,
has
partnered
with
the
Aspire
Beyond
Girl
Child
Foundation
to
significantly
impact
young
girls’
lives.
This
collaboration
aims
to
address
the
critical
issues
of
menstrual
health
and
reproductive
rights
among
adolescents
in
Ghana.
On
Wednesday
24th
July,
2024,
Meta
Transaction
and
Aspire
Beyond
Girl
Child
Foundation
organized
a
highly
successful
event
that
included
distributing
menstrual
products
and
an
awareness
talk
on
reproductive
health
and
rights.
The
event,
which
took
place
at
Bomso
M/A
JHS
at
Kumasi,
was
attended
by
421
adolescents
from
the
school.
Empowering
Young
Girls
with
Knowledge
and
Resources
Understanding
the
challenges
faced
by
young
girls
during
menstruation,
Meta
Transaction
and
Aspire
Beyond
Girl
Child
Foundation
provided
free
menstrual
products
to
attendees.
This
initiative
aims
to
ensure
that
no
girl
misses
school
or
feels
ashamed
during
her
period
due
to
a
lack
of
sanitary
products.
The
event
also
featured
an
insightful
talk
on
reproductive
health
and
rights.
Experts
in
the
field
educated
the
girls
about
their
bodies,
menstrual
hygiene
management,
and
the
importance
of
understanding
their
reproductive
rights.
This
session
aimed
to
empower
the
girls
with
knowledge,
helping
them
make
informed
decisions
about
their
health
and
well-being.
Tackling
Stigma
and
Promoting
Support
In
addition
to
providing
menstrual
products
and
education,
the
collaboration
focused
on
reducing
the
stigma
associated
with
menstruation.
By
creating
an
open
and
supportive
environment,
the
initiative
encouraged
the
girls
to
speak
freely
about
their
experiences
and
challenges.
This
approach
is
crucial
in
fostering
a
community
where
menstruation
is
seen
as
a
natural
and
normal
part
of
life.
Meta
Transaction’s
Managing
Director,
Samuel
Opoku-Mensah,
emphasized
the
importance
of
this
collaboration:

Child
Foundation,
we
aim
to
break
down
the
barriers
that

young

their
full
potential.
Together,
we
are
committed
to
creating
a
brighter
future
for
the
next
generation.”
