Giving back goes global
INTERNATIONAL DAY OF THE GIRL IS ALMOST HERE!
On Oct 16, girls and volunteers will gather at the Lucille DeVore Tucker Center to participate in International Day of the Girl. For the third year in a row, the goal is to cut, sew and assemble 100 re-usable feminine hygiene kits to be distributed to girls and women in developing countries.

"Being able to run out to CVS or Walgreens once a month is something we take for granted," said Girls Inc. of Memphis president and CEO  Lisa Moore.

Girls who lack access to feminine hygiene supplies are also more likely to miss school, which can be detrimental to their education and the community around them. Educated girls mean less poverty, less hunger and lowered infant mortality rates.

We need you!

1. Volunteer! We need volunteers to help sew the re-usable bags for the kits. Can't sew? Don't worry! We also need help cutting the fabric pieces and assembling the kits. We'll be sewing and assembling from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Oct 16.

2. Supply! We're accepting donations for the supplies we'll need to make and assemble the hygiene kits. Check out our website for the full list of items. 

3. Give! Honor the girl in your life with a gift to Girls Inc. of Memphis and give a girl a chance to grow. Read below for details.

Contact Dora Harris for more information about donating supplies or signing up as a volunteer.
