Meet John, aka the "Sergin' General" 🫡
Since 2017, John has been one of our dedicated volunteers at the DfG Utah Warehouse, but his real magic happens at home, where his serger is always humming, turning fabric into liners for our Days for Girls Kits one seam at a time. He's not just consistent, he's basically a one man liner factory. John typically serges 850 to 1,500 liners a week, and on his best weeks he's cranked out up to 2,000, all before bringing them in to the DfG Utah Warehouse.
In 2026 alone, John has finished over 30,000 liners, bringing his lifetime total to an incredible 490,000. Let that number sink in for a second... 490,000 liners, each one destined to become part of a DfG Kit that helps keep a girl in school, a woman at work, and a community one step closer to ending period poverty.
One of those very liners recently made its way to a young girl in Peru, who has no idea just how many hours of care and dedication went into every single stitch.
John, we see you. We appreciate you. Thank you for showing up week after week, ready to serge for good. You are proof that one person really can change hundreds of thousands of lives, one liner at a time. 🧡
