KAMPALA – Chil Femtech Center, a pioneering telemedicine service provider, has announced the expansion of its groundbreaking E-Hygiene Shop program to schools, promoting a healthy learning environment for all.
“We believe every learner in Africa deserves a healthy learning environment,” said Dr. Shamim Nabuuma, CEO of Chil Femtech Center. “Our E-Hygiene Shop program bridges the gap in basic hygiene supplies, ensuring learners stay healthy and focused in school.”
The innovative program offers learners access to essential hygiene products, including reusable sanitary pads, on a credit basis.
