What if 50 cents could change the future? For girls in developing countries who miss a week of school each month during menstruation, 50 cents buys a month of sanitary supplies and an uninterrupted education. 50 Cents Period represents a worldwide network of women dedicated to creating more options for girls by providing supplies, facilities and education related to menstruation. The solution is simple; the impact lasts a lifetime.
Join us in Downtown Decatur on October 22 for a citywide fundraiser to support 50 Cents Period, a local nonprofit founded by a group of Decatur women. Just follow the red sidewalk chalk--restaurants and retailers flying red balloons will have special sales, promotions and treats – all to support the work of 50 Cents Period.
Everyone who brings a box of Sanitary Pads to the gazebo on the Square will be entered to win a $25 gift card from Cakes & Ale.
