October ends tomorrow. Breast cancer awareness should not. It is the most common cancer among Nigerian women. Early detection saves lives. Check yourself. Tell a woman you love to do the same. Book a screening. Do it today. 🎀 #BreastCancer #BreastCancerAwareness

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among Nigerian women. Most cases are diagnosed too late because nobody showed many women how to check. Watch this video. Learn how to do a breast self-examination at home. Share it with every woman you know. Early detection saves lives

Menstrual health education is where we start. Not where we stop. We help girls and women see that their knowledge can become a skill, a service, and a source of income. Knowing why something matters is important. Knowing what to do with it is life-changing 🤍

We teach girls how to stay safe. How to notice danger. How to play defence. But we rarely ask why that burden always falls on them. Joy Amarachi Azubuike wrote that. We implore you to read it 🤍 girlsandgoalsinitiative.com/… #feminism

Nigeria is 66 today. Many of her children are tired. The cost of living is real. The frustration is valid. But today we are asking: what can I do for my country? Vote. Hold leaders accountable. Empower the people around you. Contribute where you can.

Before we talk about the Nigeria we want to build, let’s remember the Nigeria we grew up with. The birthdays. The Cabin biscuits. The bottles of Coke and Fanta. Sunday evenings around the television. Cousins everywhere. Neighbours who felt like family. #independenceday

Childhood games until someone shouted, “Come inside!” Some things have changed. Some things haven’t. But this is also Nigeria. 🇳🇬 Happy Independence Day, Nigeria. From memory to hope. From where we were to where we’re going. #independenceday

A Nigerian study tested 16 pad brands sold across Abuja, Lagos, Kaduna, and Port Harcourt. Harmful volatile organic compounds were found in every single brand. Exposure levels exceeded internationally recognised safe thresholds in every case. SuS Pads.

A girl who cannot see herself in a position of authority will not reach for one. The First Seat is our new programme to change that. We are calling for partners and sponsors. 🤍 Call: 07061280918 Email: [email protected] #GirlsAndGoalsNG #TheFirstSeat

Real feminism is not hostility toward men. It is not a competition. Our latest blog post unpacks what feminism was always meant to be. Written by Ayede Chelsea Mary. Read it girlsandgoalsinitiative.com/…? #SheWillNotBeSilent #GirlsAndGoalsNG #Feminism #Feminism

At Girls and Goals Initiative, we believe that girl empowerment does not stop at education and health. It extends to leadership, representation, and power. The door is locked. We are here to help break it down🤍

They said feminism came from the West. But that narrative is untrue. Many Nigerian women were feminists long before they even knew that word existed. #SheWillNotBeSilent #GirlsAndGoalsNG #NigerianFeminism #SheWasAlwaysHere
