Hana Figueroa Urías is the heart and soul of the local team and has been with us from the very beginning. Employed as our primary Menstrual Health Ambassador, Hana is our professional interface with both lakeside communities and the local girls. She contacts public schools and community groups to schedule the educational sessions that are a required component with every kit we provide to every girl. Hana expanded the 3-hour classroom information recommended by our international organization to a 12-hour intensive, broad-based health education program, typically provided in 2-hour segments. We cannot imagine having a more caring, capable leader to be our educator and key contact with girls.
“Helping local Mexican girls in this most personal way is my dream job. I love that I get to teach, promote and help guide this fantastic group of dedicated volunteers, plus build and represent a quality program that educates and empowers women and girls.”
Educated. Empowered. Aware.
