Thabitha Khumalo is the most courageous women I’ve ever had the privilege to meet. Her sheer determination to get this issue onto the international agenda, without fear of the repercussions that she will inevitably face, should be an inspiration to us all. Women in Zimbabwe face the most horrific daily conditions and the most horrific daily choices- they are force to choose between feeding their families and keeping their dignity.

Zimbabwe is a country in economic crisis and it is the women who are at the brunt of the suffering again. The Zimbabwean government’s extortionate tax on sanitary products is unfounded, unfair and unjust. No woman should ever have her dignity stripped from her in this way. I fully support the Dignity! Period. campaign and honestly believe that we all can play a part in raising awareness and funds for this incredibly important battle.

‘We will win this fight to save Zimbabwe, we need your support to empower us to fight with dignity.’ Thabitha Khumalo

Let’s take this opportunity, let’s empower the women of Zimbabwe and let’s help restore their dignity.
