GEMMA began with friendship.

After moving from Texas to Uganda, I met a group of women who quickly became friends. As I listened to their stories, one thing became clear-they weren’t lacking in talent or strength.

They were simply lacking opportunity.

So we began building something together.

Today, we employ Ugandan women to create reusable period kits for girls who need them-providing steady work for one and essential support for the other, every month.

Because every woman deserves to be supported…in both the big and small details of life..
