What is the "Days for Girls" Organization?
Every girl in the world deserves an education, safety, and dignity. We help girls gain access to quality sustainable feminine hygiene and awareness, by direct distribution of sustainable feminine hygiene kits, by partnering with nonprofits, groups, and organizations, by raising awareness, and by helping communities around the world start their own programs. Thanks to a global grassroots network of thousands of volunteers and supporters on 6 continents, we have reached women and girls in 123 countries on 6 continents. It's working. You can help us reach the rest.

Imagine...
What if not having sanitary supplies meant DAYS without school, DAYS without income, DAYS without leaving the house? Girls use leaves, mattress stuffing, newspaper, corn husks, rocks, anything they can find...but still miss up to 2 months of school every year. It turns out this issue is a surprising but instrumental key to social change for women all over the world. The poverty cycle can be broken when girls stay in school.

How can you help?
Come and help make feminine hygiene kits and learn more about the Days for Girls International Program. Sewing skills are helpful but not required. There are many tasks at many skill levels and we invite all to help.
