Days for Girls Event

Creative Sewing Center

11 North 1st Street

Geneva, IL

We will work with Days for Girls to make menstrual pad kits to send to areas where women do not attend school because they cannot mange the flow of their periods.  These kits change the lives of female students.

We are collecting 100% cotton fabric to make the bags for the kits AND 100% cotton flannel for the pads.  

Please contact Betty Laliberte or Kim Miller for more information or if you have donations.
