Power Pad Project Quiz to test your knowledge

Posted by Mandisa Rasmeni | Jul 31, 2017 | After Hours

FNCC and the Power Pad Girls will host a Quiz Night on 1 August at 18:00. Tickets are on sale currently and are pegged at N$30 for students and N$40 for the rest.

Participant are set to put their general knowledge, pop culture know how and knowledge of Africa to the test at the Power Pad Girls Quiz Night.

The event will have a maximum of 6 people per team and there will be three rounds of questions, with 10 questions per round and a bonus question worth 5 points.

Because thousands of local school girls miss an average of three school days a month because they can not afford menstrual pad, the Power Pad Girls’ project is fighting this problem by providing the girls with free re-usable pads.

The quiz also aims to enable the Power Pad Girls to continue to provide pads to schoolgirls, primarily in rural areas, along with comprehensive education as the proceeds collected on the night will go towards the Power Pad Project.
