Description

While you read this, more than 80 million girls in developing countries are trapped in poverty because they miss school when they have their periods.  Girls are often forced to use ROCKS, LEAVES, NEWSPAPERS, OLD RAGS or anything they can find to manage their monthly cycles, which often leads to infections.

This WALK is unlike any kind of walk that has ever been done before.  Each participant will receive a hygiene bag, with a pair of underwear, and one of the items listed above that women and girls are using in developing countries.  You will then slip the underwear OVER TOP your pants, and put the provided hygiene items in, to replicate what a girl may go through in a developing country when she has her monthly cycle.  Join others, as we walk together in honor and hope for millions of girls worldwide.

Every registration will EMPOWER 2 girls to receive Pink Box Purpose Hygiene Bags filled with reuseable pads and the necessary items they need to manage their monthly cycles and keep them in school!!

Registration at 6:00 p.m.

Walk at 6:30 p.m.

* Can't join that day?  There is a Virtual Walk option, where you will be able to receive the Hygiene Bag and items needed to complete the walk at your own time!  Your registration will also EMPOWER 2 girls to receive Pink Box Purpose Hygiene Bags!
