Girlsfoundation visit to lime stone secondary school to talk on hygiene.

Education always has been a very powerful tool for every growing society. We have always believed that the little ones are our future and so need to be given the necessary education they deserve.

Lime stone secondary school is a school in Nigeria which has been neglected and left for the poor, when I mean the poor, I mean people that can not afford a quality education but irrespective of that fact the girlsfoundation decided to visit the students of the school to encourage them and make them feel they can be better despite their place of learning.

We talked to the students about hygiene and how they can take good care of their bodies, we were shocked hearing kids of their age has never been given a proper sex education and told how they can take care of their bodies.
We talked to the kids a lot and after that we took pictures with the kids and made them feel like family.

• Girl education: Some people still believe that training a female child is a waste of time and money 'cause they feel she'd still end up in the kitchen, well sorry to disappoint you but ladies can do much more than just being house wives, lots of educated women are doing fine in our society today. Every child deserves equal right to education.We don't think anyone should be treated differently because of their gender, we are all one and it's high time we realized that.
