The former MMC of Health and Social Development explained that Kwa-Thema and Tsakani are her constituencies and this is one of the projects she has planned.
“The drive forms part of the Social Distresses assessments before the 2021 Local Government Elections where school governing bodies informed ActionSA of some of the challenges and barriers faced by girl learners from attending school.
“I decided to approach local business people who offered to sponsor the sanitary towels,” she added.
“The drive will see much of Ekurhuleni learners and schools benefit from the initiative,” said Zitha.
