"When I heard about Cuplings Cups and what they are trying to achieve in local African communities, I knew it was something I had to be a part of. The fact that they built an entire company just to provide menstrual kits to local communities, speaks to their core beliefs and earnest desire to make a true impact in society. The long term societal impact these kits are going to have on our communities is absolutely incredible. I am honoured and excited to be the Brand Ambassador of Cuplings Cups and I look forward to seeing the generational impact these kits will have on our local communities."
