\n Resty Nabaggala, a dedicated advocate for gender equality and youth empowerment in Uganda, is working to tackle menstrual poverty and promote education for girls. Growing up in a rural area plagued by poverty, child marriages, and limited educational opportunities, Resty experienced firsthand the challenges that hindered girls` access to education.

After witnessing the stark realities faced by her peers\u2014many of whom were forced into early marriages or dropped out of school due to menstruation-related issues\u2014Resty became deeply committed to addressing the root causes of gender inequality and educational barriers in her community. This passion led her to establish the Here For Her Foundation, with the goal to empower girls and women by providing menstrual education, access to reusable sanitary pads, and advocacy for girls` rights.

Through initiatives like the Pad Her Project - supported by a seed grant from The Pollination Project - Resty and her team are working tirelessly to break the silence surrounding menstruation and dismantle the societal taboos that perpetuate menstrual poverty. By offering educational sessions, distributing reusable pads, and empowering girls with the knowledge and skills to manage their menstrual health, Resty aims to ensure that no girl is deprived of her right to education due to menstruation-related challenges.

\n The Green Earth Initiative (#Cameroon) is a project dedicated to educating and empowering students about climate change, sustainable development, and environmental challenges, that has received a seed grant from The Pollination Project in 2023. With a focus on fostering environmental protection and conservation, the initiative establishes Eco-clubs and Environment Clubs in schools, providing students with the tools to learn, engage, and take action in their communities.

Since receiving the grant from TPP, the Green Earth Initiative has expanded its reach, now encompassing 9 additional schools across two regions\/cities, surpassing its initial goal of 5.
This expansion was made possible by the overwhelming interest from school authorities and the growing number of volunteers and team members.

Through the support of TPP and other partners, the project`s environmental education programs, awareness campaigns, and initiatives have impacted over 8000 students in two cities of Cameroon. Additionally, the initiative has planted over 600 trees, launched 5 Environment\/Eco Clubs, and distributed over 150 adapted waste bins produced from recycled plastics, contributing to proper waste management practices.

The seed grant from The Pollination Project has been instrumental in catalyzing the growth and success of the Green Earth Initiative, enabling it to make a tangible difference in the lives of students and communities, while fostering a culture of environmental stewardship and sustainability.

Give Back to the Source is a transformative project aimed at supporting regenerative farming practices in Suchitepequez, Guatemala, while establishing a dedicated women`s eco-artisan center. Thanks to a TPP seed grant, they were able to take the first steps towards establishing the center and convened with a group of indigenous women to plan the next phase of their bamboo craft program. They are dedicated to empowering these women economically, ensuring they have the tools and knowledge to thrive independently. With a lined-up order of bamboo curtains, the women will receive mentorship to complete their first collective sale, marking a significant step towards sustainable self-sufficiency.

\n Aanchal Raturi is an animal advocate with a postgraduate diploma in Animal Protection Law from India. At 18, she turned vegan after learning about dairy cruelty. Seeking to broaden her advocacy, she founded Project Re-Learn, conducting workshops in Uttaranchal colleges to sensitize future agriculturists about ethical practices. Her aim is to inspire a shift towards plant-based industries, impacting over 150 students per university through workshops and field trips to animal sanctuaries.

\u201cI applied but I thought it would be hard for someone else to understand my project because it is a very personal vision. But, when I got the approval email, I was very surprised. I was more than happy because I would be able to make it happen. I felt like I was seen.\u201d

She`s our Heartivist of The Week. Read more on our website [link in bio]
