MoonBee! Not Your Grandmothers Sewing Bee

What's a MoonBee? At this hands-on sewing bee workshop, participants will be creating and assembling reusable feminine hygiene kits to be distributed to school girls in over 30 countries around the world by the Mooncatchers Project.

This nonprofit organization is on a mission to remove menstruation related barriers to education for girls and young women around the world. These reusable kits allow school girls to fully participate in their education, avoiding the disruption and educational setbacks of missed school days due to menstruation.  

All materials and instruction will be provided by the MoonCatchers Project Inc. No special skills are required.

Registration is required. There are tasks for all skill levels. Those with sewing skills and/or sewing machines are encouraged to attend and bring their sewing machine with them. Assistance getting sewing machines into the building can be provided. Call the library to make arrangements.  

Can't participate but want to contribute? In lead up to this workshop, the library will be collecting disposable feminine hygiene products to be distributed to local charitable organizations. Donations will help address related issues as home.
