Future Initiatives:
Sanitary products: Footsteps for Africa has partnered with Windhoek, Namibia-based company Ann’s Pad to provide washable sanitary pad kits to 1,000 adolescent girls, along with education to battle school absenteeism and “period shaming.” A $10 donation covers one sanitary kit per girl.
Clean water supply: In partnership with the Namibian government, Footsteps for Africa has identified locations for 15 water wells, solar pumps and agriculture water tanks, ultimately bringing reliable access to clean water to 20,000 people. Fundraising target: $240,000, or $16,000 per system.
Bunkhouses: Furnished bunkhouses for disadvantaged students at Oshamukweni Combined School as well as other schools in the region, including Ondobe Secondary School in Oshikango, Namibia. Fundraising target: $50,000 per bunkhouse or $2,000 per student.
