Who is I Support the Girls ...

"Through an international network of Affiliates, I Support the Girls (ISTG) collects and distributes essential items, including bras, underwear, and menstrual hygiene products, allowing women and folx experiencing homelessness, impoverishment, or distress to stand tall with dignity."

No one should have to choose between their next hot meal or a package of maxi pads. And maxi pads should never stand in the way of the next steps in pursuing a better future. But for homeless women and others impacted by other forms of chronic trauma that is simply a reality…

I sat down with Linda Willimer of the Delaware Chapter of I Support the Girls.  Listen to how I Support the Girls got started, how Linda started one of the New Jersey Chapters, and how Linda started the Delaware Chapter.

I for one never stopped to think about what if I had to choose between giving my child a hot meal or a menstrual hygiene product.  Homelessness, natural disasters, 3rd world countries, think about it and then donate.
