I was just invited to speak at the January dinner by Delta Kappa Gamma, an honor society for key women educators. They want to take on the Dress a Girl Around the World campaign as a 2012 project and think this will go to the state level! They tell me it is in keeping with past projects they have taken on such as raising funds for Afghan girls’ education, AIDS baby quilts, Soles for Souls, homework bags for children in shelters, etc.
I am SEW excited!! Can't wait! I am so pleased that doors are opening all around to this great cause!
Stay tuned!!!
Dress a Girl Around the World was started in October of 2009 under the notion that every girl should own at least one dress. We transform new & gently used pillowcases into beautiful dresses for little girls. As of today, over 280,000 dresses have been made by volunteers and blessed little girls in 80 countries-including the US. We have people sewing dresses all over the United States, the UK, Canada, China, the Philippines, & Australia. WHAT IF THAT DRESS WAS MADE BY YOU???
