AKUNIIHOLE: Learners of Akuniihole Primary School in the Oshana Region received sanitary pads and school shoes on Wednesday.

Officially handing over the donation, Sydney Boois said the donation was handed over through the 4×4 Initiative.

According to Boois, the programme is aimed to strengthen support systems in communities.

‘We are in the communities for the communities and we got the donation from various people who aim to assist a Namibian child,’ he said.

He added that the donation is part of the initiative and will continue to assist more people when they have anything to offer.

He indicated that the challenge to men in society is to embed positive values and encourage each other towards healthy masculinity.

Boois stated that to do so, it would require more pragmatic activities and interventions unlike traditional talk shows with limited actions.

‘Hence, small activities such as today to be emulated by men in the area to support both the boy child and girl child,’ he noted.
