We've reached over 3.9 million girls worldwide with menstrual health solutions & education.

Every month, millions of women and girls miss school and work because they lack something essential: feminine hygiene supplies. Days for Girls is giving back days of education and opportunity through providing DfG Kits, each of which lasts for 3 years. To date, we've reached 2.4+ million girls in 144 countries with menstrual health solutions & education.

Utah law already requires period products in government buildings and public schools.

Why not hospitals?

This was the question Penni Smith, Program Coordinator for the Utah Center for Bleeding and Clotting Disorders at Intermountain Primary Children’s Hospital (PCH), was asking herself over and over again.

Over the next eight months, Penni’s team sought to bridge this access gap. They launched a pilot, stocking products in PCH’s most-used restrooms.

Following these findings, Intermountain Children’s Health adopted the Period Positive Workplace Initiative across three pediatric facilities, reaching over 4,500 employees and the patients they serve!

Upon certification, Intermountain Children’s Health became the first hospital to join the PPW movement!

DfG volunteer Carolyn Kunz has plenty of wise words after 92 years of living…

Each day after walking four miles early in the morning, Carolyn sews components for DfG kits for hours.

She switches machines “every two bobbins” in order to avoid her machine burning out.

Like all of our volunteers, Carolyn embodies intentional generosity and a willingness to give of herself for the benefit of others.

Thank you Carolyn 💛

Do you know a “Carolyn”? Share a little about them below!💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛💛

The Navajo Nation is the largest Native American tribe in the United States,
covering over 27,000 square miles and home to over 250,000 Navajo (Diné)
people across 110 local Chapter communities.

DfG has been working for over a year with the government and community partners
in the To’Nanees’Dizi (Tuba City), Tó Dínéeshzheeʼ (Kayenta), and Ch’ini’li
(Chinle) Chapters. These leaders are working hard to ensure access to menstrual products and provide training for community health professionals.

We applaud these leaders and are grateful to work alongside them to expand opportunities for girls and women in these communities.

Menstrual cups were donated by DIVA, disposable pads by Aunt Flow and period underwear from the Period Company.

Mary heard about Days for Girls in 2017, while still in high school. She was inspired and immediately asked how she could help.

Can we just say, “She understood the assignment!”

So grateful for Mary and the thousands like her who help move this work forward every day.

Over 400 businesses in 62 countries have received PPW certification, creating menstrual-friendly workplaces for almost half a million employees across the globe!

"Research also shows that investments in menstrual health at the workplace yield a 2:1 return on investment – thanks to increased productivity, reduced absenteeism, and improved employee retention.”
