A note from Days for Girls International:
Heads up! We have a rather large request for July 1st. 600 kits for
Uganda for Worldwide Orphanage Relief Corporation. We need to have this
ready to go by June 15th. DFG Chicago has a huge commitment too, 1200
kits. And... if they are getting close... DFGI could use shields, liners
and supplies in a big way in coming weeks as we are about to empty out
almost everything we have to fulfill recent requests AND the Africa
trip. Whoo hoo! It's terrific to have so many opportunities to reach so
many girls!!
Let the Travel Fundraising Begin....
I just created an account on "Go Fund Me" to take donations for my trip with Days for Girls next year! Check it out- HERE
June's Meeting
Preparations have already been made (by me!) for June 9th's meeting at Messiah. I have cut out ONE HUNDRED shields, and I have lots and lots of flannel and hemp fleece for the liners.
Here's our problem, though: WE NEED PUL!!! We are completely out. It is only available online, and there is a link in the "Buy Supplies" tab above if you would like to order it yourself. But... Days for Girls International can get it for us at wholesale prices- which means about half off the retail price. We only have three weeks until the meeting, and I'm assuming that the wholesale order would need to be placed fairly early to get here in time, so I'm going to make a deadline of Sunday, June 27th for monetary donations. That will give the manufacturer two weeks to get it to us. If we cannot raise enough funds for the full roll, we will just need to order it at retail price.

May's Meeting
This Saturday, May 12th is a regularly scheduled meeting date for Days for Girls Georgia. Due to previous commitment (AKA a little boy's martial arts tournament), I am going to have to cancel the meeting.
