This is part of a growing push to support menstrual health and overall welfare for female footballers in Ghana. The same groups ran a similar donation for the U-17 Black Maidens earlier this year during their World Cup qualifiers. It ties into the national free sanitary pads policy that President Mahama reaffirmed in the 2026 State of the Nation Address, with GH¢292.4m allocated to keep girls in school and end period poverty. 9801649a
