‘Days for Girls’

Rhondda Sweetman from Plimmerton Rotary

'Menstruation is a subject that rarely comes up at Rotary meetings (in fact never, in my experience), until last evening. Our speaker was Helen Griffin, the Country Coordinator for ‘Days for Girls’, an organisation that makes life easier for menstruating girls in developing countries. Past President Donna has mentioned that she had asked the Club to support Days for Girls in Schools when we built the school in Balibo, Timor Leste but the timing wasn't right. However, the news has just come through that Days for Girls support has just been implemented in Balibo.
