Your generosity can provide milk, medicine, education, and hope to those who need it most.
Thousands of girls miss school every month because they cannot afford safe menstrual products. Help us provide reusable sanitary pads, menstrual health education, and hygiene kits so every girl can manage her period with dignity, confidence, and without interrupting her education.
For many girls in our communities, menstruation is more than a natural biological process, it is a barrier to education, confidence and opportunity. Without access to safe and affordable menstrual products, many girls are forced to miss school, use unsafe alternatives, or stay isolated during their periods.
At Together To Get Her, we believe that no girl should have to choose between her education and her period.
Through our Menstrual Health and Hygiene Program, we train girls and young women to make reusable sanitary pads, provide menstrual health education, and distribute reusable pad kits to those who need them most. These interventions help girls stay in school, protect their health, restore their dignity, and reduce the financial burden on their families.
While we have reached many girls, the need continues to grow. Every day, more schools and communities ask for our support than we currently have the resources to provide.
Your generosity can help us reach more girls with reusable sanitary pads, menstrual hygiene kits, training materials, and community education. Together, we can end period poverty and ensure that every girl has the opportunity to learn, thrive, and achieve her dreams.

Through the generosity of our well-wishers, Together To Get Her has acquired five sewing machines to empower vulnerable girls and young women with practical tailoring skills. This milestone expands our vocational training program, helping participants build sustainable livelihoods, gain confidence, and create brighter futures. As demand for training continues to grow, we remain committed to reaching even more girls with your continued support.
# Five Sewing Machines, Countless New Beginnings
At **Together To Get Her**, we believe that empowering girls with practical skills is one of the most effective ways to break the cycle of poverty, promote independence, and restore hope. For many vulnerable adolescent girls and young women in our communities, access to education and employment opportunities remains limited due to poverty, gender-based violence, early pregnancy, school dropout, and other social challenges.
One of our long-term goals has been to establish a vocational skills training program where girls can learn tailoring and fashion design, equipping them with skills that can generate sustainable incomes and improve their quality of life.
We are excited to share a significant milestone in this journey. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our well-wishers and supporters, **Together To Get Her has successfully acquired five sewing machines** for our vocational training program.
This achievement represents much more than the donation of equipment. It is an investment in the dreams, confidence, and future of every girl who will sit behind these machines to learn a skill that can transform her life. Through practical training, the girls will gain valuable experience in tailoring, garment construction, and entrepreneurship, preparing them to earn a living, support their families, and become self-reliant.
The sewing machines have already strengthened our capacity to train more girls, but the demand for our program continues to grow. Many young women are still waiting for the opportunity to enroll, and we need additional sewing machines, fabrics, tailoring tools, training materials, and classroom equipment to expand the program and reach more beneficiaries.
We are deeply grateful to every individual, partner, and well-wisher whose generosity made this milestone possible. Your support is helping to create opportunities where there were once barriers and giving hope to girls who deserve the chance to build brighter futures.
As we celebrate this achievement, we remain committed to expanding our vocational training program and empowering even more girls with the skills they need to become financially independent and active contributors to their communities.
For this help case, the **"What is Needed"** section should clearly tell donors what additional support is required to expand the program. You can use the following:
## What Is Needed
Although we have successfully acquired five sewing machines, many more girls are waiting to join our vocational skills program. To expand our reach and provide quality training, we are seeking support for:
* Additional sewing machines
* Overlock (serger) sewing machines
* Sewing tables and chairs
* Tailoring tool kits (scissors, measuring tapes, rulers, pins, seam rippers, etc.)
* Fabrics and practice materials
* Threads, needles, zippers, buttons, and other sewing accessories
* Irons and ironing boards
* Training manuals and learning materials
* Rent and utilities for the training space
* Instructor/facilitator support
* Startup kits for girls who complete the training
* Financial donations to help sustain and grow the vocational training program
With your support, we can equip more girls with practical skills, create sustainable livelihoods, and empower them to build brighter, more independent futures.
Help Baby Agoe Grace, a child living with cerebral palsy access essential medical care, physiotherapy, assistive devices and nutritional support. Your donation can help improve their quality of life and give them hope for a brighter future.
Every child deserves the opportunity to grow, learn, play, and dream. Yet for many families raising children with cerebral palsy in Uganda, each day is filled with challenges that most people never see.
When Baby Grace a 5 year old was born, her parents looked forward to watching her reach every milestone. However, as the months passed, they noticed she was not able to sit, crawl, or control her movements like other children her age. After several visits to health facilities, they received a diagnosis that changed their lives forever cerebral palsy.
Since then, life has become a daily struggle. Baby Grace requires constant care, regular physiotherapy, proper nutrition, specialized medical attention, and assistive equipment to support her development. Her mother stays home to care for her full-time, making it difficult to earn an income, while the family struggles to meet even their basic needs.
One of the greatest challenges the family faces is nutrition. Due to her condition, Baby Grace is only able to take milk, making it her primary source of nourishment. Unfortunately, buying enough milk every day has become an overwhelming burden for the family, whose financial resources are extremely limited.
During one of our visits, Baby Grace's mother shared a simple but heartfelt request. Rather than asking for temporary assistance, she asked whether Together To Get Her could help the family purchase a dairy cow. Her hope was that a cow would provide a sustainable supply of milk for her daughter and reduce the daily struggle of finding enough to feed her.
Her request touched our hearts because it reflected not only a mother's love but also her desire for a lasting solution that would give her child a better quality of life.
While providing a dairy cow is one of the ways we hope to support this family, our vision goes much further. We are working to ensure that Baby Grace receives the comprehensive care she needs, including regular physiotherapy, medical reviews, nutritional support, assistive devices, hygiene supplies, and caregiver support. We also aim to help the family build a more secure and sustainable future so they can continue caring for her with dignity and hope.
At Together To Get Her, we believe that every child deserves dignity, love, and the opportunity to thrive. We are committed to standing alongside families caring for children with disabilities by connecting them to the support they need and raising awareness about the realities they face.
Your support can make a lasting difference by helping provide:
A Diary cow for milk
Regular physiotherapy sessions
Medical consultations and treatment
Nutritional support
Diapers and hygiene supplies
Assistive devices such as supportive seating or wheelchairs
Transportation to health facilities
Caregiver support and family counseling
Every donation, partnership, or act of kindness brings hope to children like Baby Grace and reminds their families that they are not alone.
