Supplying Girls with the Basics



Over 5 years ago I traveled to Moldova for the first time. While I was there,
I learned about the struggle the girls deal with on a monthly basis. Due to
the lack of supply, hundreds of girls in orphanages across Moldova use cotton
in their mattresses and other less than desirable options to get through
their periods. This is where it began, One for You, One for Her was started.

Women are called from all over the world to care for someone else while they
are taking care of their monthly needs. Women from Tufts University,
Children's Hospital - Boston, Grace Chapel, Symantec and many other
organizations have come together to provide supplies for almost 1,000 girls
over the years.
One for You, One for Her has extended its reach to Kenya, Haiti and Ukraine.
My desire is to increase One for You, One for Her's outreach in Kenya, Haiti,
Ukraine and Moldova. My goal is to keep girls in school, help prevent
possible disease and hopefully provide a means that makes it slightly easier
to be a girl.
If you are interested in connecting us with locations in need or donating,
please contact me.
Thank you.
