Program areas at Days for Girls International

Our global program consists of program offices and enterprises, advocacy and MLE (monitoring, learning & evaluation) and grants and partnerships both locally based and abroad. Program offices provide support and access to supplies. Enterprises are structured as local business partnerships with exclusive licensing access to our patented DfG kit design and education curriculum. Certified enterprise leaders sew and sell DfG kits, provide access to menstrual health & hygiene education. With advocacy, they increase awareness of menstrual health issues in their communities and provide key indicators for learning and evaluation. This encourages partnerships to implement grants near any of our 119 certified enterprises in Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Middle east.
Our local program work is with the volunteers-based program and production design. Our volunteers are organized into chapters and teams. Both consist of volunteers who gather together or independently to promote our mission by sewing and assembling DfG kits, focusing on either complete kits or specific components. All groups start as teams and can apply for chapter status after meeting criteria. Chapters and teams enable us to respond quickly in refugee and emergency situations by supplying DfG kits quickly in areas of need. Our production design continues to improve for easier and faster assembly and improved quality of kits. Thanks to the distributions made and enterprises cultivated by our volunteer network, DfG kits and health education have reached well over 2.8 million girls worldwide.
