The CroxItOut campaign continues to create meaningful conversations around women’s health, empowerment and personal development as it reached students of OLA Senior High School and Mawuko Girls Senior High School in Ho, Volta Region of Ghana on the 2nd October 2026, with an engaging programme designed to educate, inspire and empower young women.
The initiative brought together entertainment, health education and motivational discussions, creating an atmosphere where students could learn, ask questions and reflect on issues that directly affect their lives and future.
One of the highlights of the programme was an outstanding entertainment performance by Lali X Lola, which brought excitement and energy to the schools. Their performance provided students with an opportunity to relax, connect and enjoy themselves while reinforcing the campaign’s broader message of using positive platforms to engage and inspire young people.
Beyond the entertainment, the programme focused strongly on empowering young women to understand their worth, develop confidence and take charge of their futures.
Akosua Naana Obenewaa Lexis Opoku-Agyemang, Communications and Marketing Executive at Lexta Ghana Limited, delivered an inspiring session on women empowerment under the theme “Your Mind, Your Power.”
Her message encouraged the students to recognise the strength of their minds and understand that personal development begins with the way they think about themselves, their abilities and their future.
The session challenged the girls to believe in their potential, overcome limiting beliefs and understand that they have the power to shape their own stories.
Health education was another major component of the CroxItOut engagement.
Dr. Asian Fadila Adamu, a Medical Doctor at Ho Teaching Hospital, provided the students with detailed education on breast cancer awareness and menstrual health.
The breast cancer awareness session focused on the importance of understanding the disease, being conscious of changes in the body and seeking medical attention when necessary. The students were encouraged to take their health seriously and to understand that early awareness and timely medical attention can make a significant difference.
The discussion on menstrual health also provided the girls with important information about understanding their menstrual cycles, maintaining proper menstrual hygiene and feeling confident enough to discuss menstrual health without shame or embarrassment.
The session created room for students to gain practical knowledge while also addressing some of the misconceptions and discomfort that often surround conversations about women’s health.
The success of the CroxItOut programme was made possible through the support of its sponsors and partners, (Yazz Pads and toothpaste, A1 Bread, and Foodtech products) whose contribution continues to help the initiative reach more young people with important conversations around women’s health, empowerment and personal development.
Through these partnerships, CroxItOut is able to extend its reach beyond awareness campaigns and create opportunities for young women to access information that can influence their health, confidence and future choices.
As the world observes Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the message from CroxItOut remains especially relevant: awareness should lead to action. Breast cancer is not an issue that should only be discussed during an awareness month. Women and girls must be encouraged to understand their bodies, pay attention to unusual changes and seek professional medical advice when they have concerns.
CroxItOut therefore encourages every woman and girl to make her health a priority. Check yourself, know your body and seek medical attention when necessary.
The campaign’s engagements at OLA Senior High School and Mawuko Girls Senior High School demonstrate that when young women are given the right information, the right encouragement and a safe space to learn, they can become more confident advocates for their own health and well-being.
