I Support The Girls

We love it when volunteers come to support us with bras, and we love it when those volunteers are British Embassy Washington! Thanks to the British Embassy for stopping by to volunteer and bid farewell to Naomi💗

We are so grateful to Subaru of America for their generous #donation of over 15,000 pads and tampons to our Central/South #NewJersey Affiliate! They are steering with generosity, that's for sure 🚘 Thank you again to the #Subaru #WomensNetwork!

One of the many amazing parts of our nonprofit organization is our Affiliate Network-- generous people who live ordinary lives but are extraordinary people, volunteering their time to work toward our ISTG mission collectively! It is with the help of our Affiliate Network that ISTG has managed to donate out 30,000,000 (that's 30 MILLION!) products! The 30,000,000th product was donated out by our Mississippi Affiliate, and we wanted to give them a proper shout-out 🎉

We hear that our segment on The Kelly Clarkson Show with Kelly Clarkson, Hoda Kotb, Lainey Wilson, Eun Yang, and Molette Green from NBC News Washington has been popping up on quite a few TVs recently👀 If you're coming to our pages from the show, thank you!💗 Learn more about I Support the Girls by heading to our website linked below!🔗 📺 https://lnkd.in/e8X44Vt

Check out this article from Scary Mommy quoting Dana Marlowe's original 2018 article "Why We Need To Talk To Ours Sons About Women's Periods, And How To Do It." We're all for teaching non-menstruating bodies about #menstruation! 👇 https://lnkd.in/g-Yqc6xt

Why 30% of #Nonprofits Fail and How We #Succeed: 1️⃣ Lack of #Planning: Good intentions need a solid #strategy. 2️⃣ Unrealistic #Goals: Big dreams can overwhelm small teams. 3️⃣ Failure to Stand Out: Many #nonprofits share a similar #mission. What makes yours unique? 4️⃣ Limited Team: One or two people can’t do it all! 5️⃣ #Funding Shortages: Money matters! Despite these challenges, #ISupportTheGirls is turning 9 tomorrow and thriving!🎊🥳 Here's our #success recipe: 1️⃣ Our founder, Dana Marlowe, said "I found people who are smarter than me in lots of business and #NPOs together all day in a mind meld session." With 4 #PilotStudies across the country, a plan was formed. 📝 2️⃣ We aimed to #donate 30 million products by our 10th year. We hit that #milestone a year early! 🎉 3️⃣ Beyond collecting and distributing #bras and #menstrualproducts, we’re active in #menstrualhealth, #periodpoverty, #womenshealth, #womenssports, and all #feminist news. 🗞📢 4️⃣ Our dedicated staff, Affiliates, and amazing volunteers have expanded ISTG not just nationally, but #globally 🌏 5️⃣ From #grants to personal #donations to #fundraisers, we've kept our operations running and donations shipping. But we need YOUR support to keep growing! 👀 We're holding a 9th birthday #fundraiser!!!🎉🎈 And if you donate $99.99 (because, 9!) you can get this totally awesome and ISTG-exclusive bumper (or bicycle. or computer. or fridge. Totally up to you!) sticker. Donate using the link below to join the journey of I Support the Girls🩷 https://lnkd.in/em23F8q2

ISTG is so happy to have been all around the globe this Pride Month celebrating with you all❤️ Thank you to our Affiliates who held and attended events, parades, festivals, and more! Even though it's the end of the month, we never stop celebrating Pride🏳️🌈

It was an honor speaking at AAA’s pride event today about I Support The Girls and the Slash Kit program. This program provides direct relief, comfort, and gender-affirming products to all folx who fall under the non-cisgender identity umbrella. I also got to hear about Free Mom Hugs Inc. and their mission to spread love and kindness 🌈❤️ Learn more about Slash Kits here: https://lnkd.in/etnAexER

#PrideMonth is a perfect time to remind everyone that LGBTQIA+ doesn't always look like how popular media portrays it. In fact, there's a huge relationship between the intersection of LGBTQIA+ and BIPOC identities AND their representation👇 https://lnkd.in/gRSx-3Z2

#WomensSports is getting due credit based on their pure talent and the right audience being hyped-- so what will happen when marketplaces want to give the same amount of time and money to women's sports teams advertising that they currently give to mens? https://lnkd.in/exHy-VNX
