What is Days for Girls?
Every girl in the world deserves education, safety, and dignity. Together with our network of thousands of exceptional volunteers and partners,we have reached over 60,000 girls and women in 59 nations on 6 continents and counting. It’s working. Days for Girls empowers Days of education. Days of health. Days of safety. Days of dignity. We do this by direct distribution of sustainable feminine hygiene kits with many nonprofits, by raising awareness, by helping other organizations start their own programs and importantly, by helping impoverished communities start their own programs to supply kits and training. You can help, volunteer with us.
GFWC Woman’s Club of New Tampa, Inc. will join forces with other Federated clubs to assist in sewing washable sanitary items for girls in poverty stricken areas. The September meeting will be dedicated to cutting patterns and sewing these for the young girls. Bring your sewing machines, scissors and pins! Don’t worry if you can’t sew, we will put you to work cutting the patterns. Donate a new pair of panties or a yard of cotton fabric.
