In summary, Days for Girls (DFG) makes feminine hygiene kits, through sewing and assembling service projects, for Young Women in Africa and other third world countries who do not have reasonable solutions for the proper disposal and distribution of feminine hygiene products. The name of the organization describes the purpose of the kits provided. It allows the girl to get their days back. When they have these products they can attend school full time and get their education. Without these products they stay home for a week each month, and as you can imagine, they are constantly behind in school.

Our Upcoming Event was featured in the Davis Clipper.  Click the link below to read more on why the Kaysville Rotary was so inspired and impressed that we had to partner with the Days for Girls organization.
