Learners from Mara Primary receive sanitary pads
Councillor intervenes in a needy situation.
With the continuous need for hygiene and the ever worrying factor of poverty, local leaders are making moves to remedy the situation. As an act of kindness and out of concern, councillor George Basupane donated 45 sanitary pads to pupils at Mara Primary School under his dignity campaign.
According to the councillor, he decided to make means and find resources to buy these pads after he heard about some of the bad conditions that children find themselves in when they come to school.
“I was shocked when I heard that there are still some children who are struggling when it comes to hygiene and sanitary pads.
“I was honestly heartbroken so that is when I decided to do something about the situation and find different ways for funding so that we can buy pads.
