The greatest preventable loss of human potential in the world

More than 20 million girls in the developing world drop out of school every year because they cannot manage their period. UNICEF says it might be as many as 50 million. THIS IS ENTIRELY PREVENTABLE!

Save a Girl™ provides adolescent girls with washable, reusable cloth sanitary kits to help them manage their period so they can stay in school. A kit costs $6 to make, but is free to the girl. It lasts for three years. Keeping an adolescent girl in school for $2 per year might be the highest return on human investment in the world.

These are their stories. Click into any square to hear, in their words, what the SaG kit means to them.

TGUP has made and donated 94,432 Save a Girl™ (SaG) kits to girls in eleven developing world countries. Click here, to see photos from every kit distribution TGUP has ever made. And, see the videos and sub-portals below to learn more.
