Days for Girls - Snoqualmie Chapter

Nov 2018

$11,900

The Snoqualmie Chapter of Days for Girls has sewn and distributed over 2500+ menstrual hygiene kits in the past four years to the women and girls in Swaziland. They have set up 5 enterprises and a sewing center so the women of Swaziland can sew their own kits. 

The grant will be used to purchase the Days for Girls kits that the women of Swaziland are sewing. This is a win-win, the women who sew are being paid to sew the Days for Girls kits and the girls and women who do not have the means to purchase menstrual supplies will be given the kits along with vital health education at no charge.

Days for Girls is changing the status quo through menstrual care solutions, health education, and income-generation opportunities. Around the world, girls and women resort to using rags, mattress stuffing, banana leaves, feathers and even cow dung to manage their menstruation. Days for Girls provides a safe, beautiful, washable, and long-lasting alternative for menstrual care, along with vital health education. Together we are creating a world with dignity, health and opportunity for all. In less than 10 years, Days for Girls has reached one million women and girls in 120+ countries on 6 continents. 

 “How do we thank you enough?

The vital support that you have just made possible is life changing. Days for Girls kits and programs add up to greater dignity, health, and opportunity.  The support of 100 WWC will enable local leadership in Swaziland to sew and sell washable pads while being the creators and access point for quality Menstrual Health solutions, as well as, women's health and safety solutions. By empowering them to become experts in education, behavior change, and marketing, this becomes a sustainable approach that meets needs in a way that creates jobs, leadership, and access. There are a lot of things that are hard to change in the world, but helping women and girls have all of their days back is something we CAN do, together. And you just stepped up to ensure thousands of women have what they need. We are honored to have your support and to partner in this way. Thank you!” Celeste A. Mergens, Founder & CEO, Days for Girls
