Thank you for choosing to support African refugee women and girls. Even in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, thanks in large part to your donations, our East African Enterprises have remained busy. With your donations as well as collaboration from a humanitarian aid organization, our Enterprise leaders have recently accomplished the following:
1. Provided a Training of Trainers course for partner staff in Ambassadors for Women’s Health (AWH) and Men Who Know (MWK) curricula, equipping them with the tools and training they need to provide comprehensive menstrual health education in the refugee communities where they work.
2. Provided Days for Girls Kits and AWH education to at least 3,000 women and girls in refugee communities across East Africa.
3. Provided MWK education to men and boys in the same refugee communities across East Africa.
With the COVID-19 pandemic spreading across Africa, many of our Enterprises have pivoted to sewing masks, while continuing to sew our patented menstrual products. Days for Girls continues to support the women and girls in those vulnerable communities with the tools they need to handle their periods safely and with dignity.
We are so grateful for the opportunity to continue this important work. And your support has made this possible.
Thank you!
