Hello Dear Donors,
We have some exciting updates to share with you about the creation of Path to Womenhood!
Since funding has been completed we have been able to find and interview the project developer, Gabi Pinos.
With her longstanding training and work with the femine cycle she was the perfect choice to bring to life the concept and message of the first pilot program.
She has been diligently researching in prepartion to create our 4 part workshop to be delivered to the first set of girls come late September/ October when school is back in session as currently, like many places around the world, children are on summer vacation.
A note from Gabi, Project Developer:
"I am very excited to be part of the project. I think this is an incredible opportunity for me to be able to share this important knowledge and to create more awareness in the new generations.
In this phase of the project, I am gathering important information on similar projects that carry out menstrual education plans for girls and women. Through this analysis we can choose certain tools that will help us carry out the message to the girls in an appropriate way.
The most important part for the development of the curriculum is the creative process, which is based on the 4 archetypes of women and the lunar phases. From all this information, we will be able to create graphic material and other tools that will allow us to interact in a more dynamic way with the girls, so that they can know themselves and walk this beautiful path of being a woman."
A note from Christy, Founder of Normlaize the Period
"I could not be more pleased for this project to be moving forward. Both Gabi Pinos and I have the same passion and vision for empowering young girls with a different and more refined message around what it means to become a woman. With her leading the charge, I feel confident and absolutely excited for this program to come to life. None of this would be possible without the generous contributions from each of you and the support of Hearts of Gold. Thank you for helping us change the conversation and the lives of deserving young girls."
