WOMAN OF FORTUNE
Karolistic Karo
Karo Omu is the founder of Sanitary Aid Initiative, a humanitarian and advocacy body that has aimed to promote the sanitary health of the girl-child across Nigeria. The organisation aims to provide free sanitary pads and other sanitary products including soaps, wipes, toilet bags, disinfectant, clean underwear and so on to girls from low-income families across public schools in Nigeria and girls in Internally Displaced Person Camps across the country. As at March 2020, she had given out nearly 11,000 pads to girls and women across nine Nigerian states, all in under 24 months.
Karo wants you to have a ‘karolistic’ week.
