I Zainab Nantume Ssebuliba a Ugandan by nationality, feel very happy to find that we have many muslim women writers than I expected.

I would like to be a member of this association as an up-coming author having written 4 books so far. However, I write books not basically Islamic, but all the ideas I use are Islamic related.

I will highly appreciate if my request is put into consideration.

Yours faithfully,

Nantume Zainab Ssebuliba

​ Peace and Blessings,
     My name is Haleemah Muhaymin, not too long ago I learned that women around the world do not have access to the necessary feminine supplies needed to function on a daily basis. Girls do not attend school at least one week of every month because they do not have the necessary sanitary supplies needed when they have their period. For the past two years I’ve sewn purses and donated them to the Sew Powerful Organization based in Washington State, which then fills them with the sanitary supplies. The filled purses are taken to Lusaka Zambia and are gifted to the girls. I am so humbled and very honored to be a part of that, but I want to do more. I began researching how to make quality reusable cloth period pads and I started sewing.
My mission (to empower girls), is to gift as many girls as I can in Africa and worldwide with a purse and ten sanitary pads inside. Having a period and proper protection should not be a hardship on any female especially for young girls who lose so much time every month during their educational years.
The materials I used for making cloth pads:
Toppers (placed against the skin)- 100% quilters cotton, flannel/brushed cotton
Core (absorbent center)- flannel, terry cloth
PUL (polyurethane laminate) waterproof fabric to prevent leakage
Backers (back of pad) flannel, fleece
Poly resin snaps (to snap around the panty crotch)
     If you want to be a part of this great cause you can donate the materials to make the pads: I will recycle gently used 100% cotton clothing such as flannel, quilter’s cotton, fleece or you can purchase any of the above mentioned fabric and/or PUL by the yard.
The fabrics I used for the purses:
Cotton, cotton blends,
Jean fabric, corduroy
Soft canvas fabric
*The girls love color and pretty designs.
Email me at-  ummyouseff@yahoo.com  - if you are interested in donating fabric or would like to sew and donate a purse.
Thanks,
Empowered Girls,
Haleemah Abdul Muhaymin
