So the JustGiving Crowdfunder ends tomorrow. We have been trying to raise funds to buy approximately 300 menstrual cups for under privileged girls in high school in Johannesburg South. Between the crowdfunder and money raised offline, we have just over R11 000, enough for about 73. As of 4.35pm!
If you missed the previous post about it, you can read more here.
There is still time to donate https://crowdfunding.justgiving.com/menstrualcups. Just over R5000 has been paid directly to me, as some South Africans have found this easier. So depending on where you live, you can eft or pay cash. You can reach me on 079 355 3666 or mrscolleenblack@gmail.com.
Even if you can’t support financially, please spread the word on Facebook, whatsapp and any way possible.
We will start with the Matric girls and work our way through the school. I will be placing our order with Cara at My Own Cup , a proudly South African company, in the next week or so, as we hope to carry on raising funds even after the crowdfunder closes.
Thank you to everyone who has helped so far – it is going to be life changing for these girls!
UPDATE 14 JANUARY: Between JustGiving, cash and direct transfers, we have received R12300 and the donations and interest are coming in fast than they were at the start! If any people, businesses, or girls schools are interested in getting involved here, please contact me on 079 355 3666 or mrscolleenblack@gmail.com.
