PadHer is a passionate team of educators and mentors working to empower the girlchild across Africa. We’re on a mission to find innovative, engaging ways to educate and mentor young African schoolgirls from underserved communities about periods, puberty, and sexual and reproductive health and rights (SRHR)—while making free sanitary pads accessible.

As a PadHer Educator/Mentor, you’ll use our comic books during school workshops to teach and mentor girls on these crucial topics. We believe both men and women have an important role to play in breaking the stigma around periods, so we welcome volunteers of any gender from all over Africa.

If you’re passionate about teaching and youth empowerment—and either have knowledge of SRHR or are eager to learn—you could be exactly who we’re looking for.

We may be hosting a workshop in your community soon and would love to have your support!

📩 How to Apply

Send an email to educators@padher.org or mentors@padher.org with the following:

• Your location

• A short cover letter

• Your resume

Please Note: This is a volunteer position. All accepted mentors/educators will undergo a compulsory masterclass on periods and women’s health. (Bonus: It’ll look great on your resume!)

Let’s change lives—one girl, one school, one pad at a time.
We can’t wait to hear from you!
