Days for Girls is working to reach Every Girl. Everywhere. Period. Did you know that many of the girls and women that lack access to supplies live in your area? For example, in the USA, nearly 20% of girls have left school early or missed school entirely when menstruating because they did not have access to period products, according to a recent Always Confidence and Puberty study.

Many of our Days for Girls Chapters and Teams find that this is an exciting project they can take on - making a huge difference in their local community! Local distributions happen effectively across many demographics, including: homeless women, refugees, shelters, low income schools, prisons, First Nations, girls in foster care, and others.
Days for Girls has found that some of the women we serve, or those that work with them, may at first look at washable products as the “Poor Girl’s Choice.” There are, however, many benefits to using washable products: they are good for the environment, budget friendly, free from harmful chemicals, and are a solution that a girl can count on having month after month, regardless of her circumstances. Rather than the “Poor Girls Choice”, Days for Girls presents washable products as the "Smart Girls Choice." We have found that the key to local distributions is honoring the fact that women like to be given choices. We want to help her find what will work best for her.
Because choices are important, we present you with the DfG Hybrid Kit!
Please Note: Days for Girls Chapters and Teams always distribute Supreme DfG Kits when sending DfG Kits for distribution to other countries. For local distributions in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, UK & USA only, Days for Girls recommends distributing a DfG Hybrid Kit.
