Mission 275K
Periods should end sentences.
Not Education.
Thanks to our donors, supporters, and team in the U.S. and Ethiopia, Dignity Period is on an important mission; a mission to reach 275,000 students by the end of 2018!
What does that really mean?
-
It’s 275,000 Growth and Changes educational booklets distributed to both boys and girls to educate about and reduce stigma associated with menstruation.
-
It’s 137,500 menstrual hygiene supply kits consisting of four reusable pads and two pairs of underwear which can provide girls accident-free school days for up to 18 months.
-
It’s pad purchases through Mariam Seba Sanitary Products Factory, a woman-owned and operated factory that employs over 40 local Ethiopian women providing them with a salary, continued education, and child care.
-
And, it means expanded global awareness of issues facing girls in Ethiopia and beyond.
Every day, your support makes these accomplishments possible.
With your help, our goal is to fulfill our outreach of 275,000 students by December 31st. At this time, more than 270,000 students have participated in our program since we began in 2014. What an impact!
Your part of the mission, should you choose to accept it, is to make a special year-end donation of $50, $100, or whatever you can afford to help us bring dignity to so many Ethiopian girls.
