A Garden Party to Remember
Saturday, July 26th was a perfect, beautiful summer day in Lynden, WA. Over 100 guests attended Days for Girls' 5th Annual Garden Party at the Bachman Estate. Guests from everywhere from Uganda to Lynden spoke passionately about this cause. The event was a great success, raising over $12,000 for DfG.

A Product Line of Our Very Own
We're big on sustainability. It's why our kits last 2-3 years! Sustainability, however, is about more than just the products and exceptional programs we're proud to put into the world; it's also about how we operate.
In the next year, Days for Girls will be launching a product line of comfortable, sporty, happy underwear, as well as hygiene kits for sale in the US. This product line will help support our efforts throughout the world, so that we can support our quickly growing family, and continue earning back days of dignity, health, and education for girls and women everywhere.
We'd love to hear your thoughts as we move forward in this exciting venture. You are invited to fill out the following survey, which concerns ideas for a product line name, and your thoughts on underwear design, etc. If you have other questions, please do not hesitate to contact productline@daysforgirls.org.
