They not only remind us of the person who has died and allow us to think of them for such a few seconds each time we do, they also let others know that we are grieving. This invites others to treat us with a little more kindness and compassion during this time. We encourage you to wear the arm band on the day of service and also for as many days after the service as you feel you need to.
They are sewn by our local ‘Days for Girls’ group. This is a volunteer organisation who sew and distribute sustainable feminine hygiene kits to women and girls in developing countries who would otherwise be unable to go out or would miss school during their monthly periods.
Available in 3 sizes – The $8-10 charge per band pays the cost of the fabric and then we donate all the profit to the Days for Girls group .
