馃搶 When girls can't manage their periods, they miss school. In Busoga, BACHI is teaching girls to make reusable sanitary pads, so they stay in class, stay confident and keep learning. #KeepGirlsInSchool #BACHI 1/2

Girls in Mayuge are learning to sew their own reusable pads with BACHI. Dignity, health and education, all in one lesson. A reusable pad. A girl in class. A future with no limits. BACHI is equipping girls with the knowledge and skills to manage menstruation with confidence.

October is #BreastCancerAwarenessMonth 馃巰 Know the signs: a new lump, change in shape, skin dimpling, nipple changes, rash or swelling. Most lumps are not cancer, but get every change checked at your nearest health facility. Check early. Live longer. #BACHI #Uganda

Holistic diabetes care means supporting the whole family. Today with @IgnagaHospital, we're conducting T1D follow-ups and providing psychosocial support to adolescents and their families. When we identified a caregiver experiencing depression, we stepped in. #MentalHealthMatters

Our EPI performance review in Jinja today didn't just look at numbers鈥攊t unpacked the "why." Stakeholders across Northern division came together to strengthen immunization services in our communities. Real conversations. Real solutions. Real progress. #VaccinationEquity #BACHI

"I knew immunization was important, but with three small children and an eight-mile walk to the health facility, the journey felt impossible." Rachel Distance was her barrier. Community outreach became her solution. That's what immunization equity looks like. #ImmunizationEquity
