“We celebrated 10 years of being a DfG Chapter! We have sent out over 23,000 kits since then!” – Farmington/Livonia, MI Chapter Our volunteers play a vital role in advancing menstrual health and dignity, both in their local communities and worldwide.

On average, women spend 𝟑,𝟎𝟎𝟎 𝐝𝐚𝐲𝐬 menstruating over their lifetime - that’s over 8 years! At DfG, we believe every one of those days should be met with confidence, dignity, and opportunity, free from any barriers. What would you do with the gift of 3,000 days?

Supporting maternal health is essential to achieving menstrual equity. In Timor-Leste, the Balibo Team made “Heavy Flow [Shields] and [Liners] for Health Centre Balibo [to] give to mothers when [they] have [a] new baby,” they shared. Their dedication helps support every mother.

Meet John, DfG’s Global Finance and Compliance Associate Director. Growing up, John never talked about menstruation—but now he teaches, “We are all the product of menstruation.” We are proud to have leaders like John helping create a #PeriodPositive world!

In 2012, World Health Organization (WHO) and UNICEF defined menstrual hygiene management as women using clean products, understanding “basic facts linked to the menstrual cycle,” and knowing how to manage it safely. DfG’s work helps people have the tools they need to menstruate with dignity.

“I brought the menstrual kit that Days for Girls (DfG) gave me and showed it to my mother,” said one Cambodian student after a DfG education session. When we educate a girl, we uplift a whole community. Our work is not just changing individuals' lives; it is changing the world.

“We showed and distributed kits both at Poulsbo Fishline and Central Kitsap food banks this month. [We] sent another 2,100 components to [the Utah Collection Point].” -Poulsbo WA Chapter DfG volunteers are making a difference for women everywhere!

Without period products, girls are more likely to miss school or be unable to fully focus in their classes. On today’s World Day for International Justice, we remember that period justice looks like equal opportunities to participate in school, work, and social activities.

When a mom living in a women’s shelter got a job in healthcare, Small Sums - a local nonprofit in Minnesota - set her up with scrubs, shoes, socks, and a DfG washable pad Kit. Her story reminds us of how period products can help women feel confident and ready to thrive at work.

Did you know Days for Girls Kits are helping change lives in Lebanon? Over the past two years, the DfG Enterprise in Lebanon has reached more than 1860 girls with sustainable menstrual health solutions, helping to break barriers and build brighter futures.

DfG and READ Bhutan teamed up to distribute 351 Kits and menstrual health education to schoolgirls in Trashigang. Kits were made by DfG Nepal, sponsored by Strathfield NSW, and flown in by Drukair. A true global effort for menstrual health! 🌍

In a menstrual health education session with partner, Meals 4 Hope, one Venezuelan woman said, “I’m going to stop using my children’s old clothes, no more rags….With these pads, I won’t have fear, no more fear of getting stained.” Menstrual health turns periods into pathways!

This is the moment when a girl at the Nigeria School for the Blind got her DfG Kit. To have access to menstrual health supplies is to be remembered, seen, and included.

Happy International Day of Friendship! 🎉 Today, we celebrate how menstrual health helps girls stay connected, confident, and close to the people who make life brighter. ✨💕

"The thing I like about my DfG Kit is that when I wear them, I sit comfortably in class because I know that the period blood will not come out of my clothes,” said a girl in Kenya. When girls have access to period products, they can focus in school and learn with confidence.
