Dream, Believe, Achieve without Limits!

Limitless Ambition is partnering with Kent State University's Women's Center to do an amazing event! The Women’s Center with support from the Fashion School is creating reusable menstruation products and kits to help keep young girls from missing school and to educate them about their reproductive health. We are kicking off this initiative with:

  • Days for Girls Sewing Day and Celebration!
  • Saturday, March 3rd
  • 4pm - Midnight
  • KSU Terrace Hall
We have a goal to create at least 100 kits at this event which will keep 100 young women from missing up to 5 days of school a month. In addition to having the opportunity to volunteer at the event, we are asking for donations (fabric, ribbon and sewing supplies). We are also requesting ongoing support with cutting patterns and collecting items for the kits including (girls panties sizes 10-14, Gallon Zip lock bags and travel size soap). We are really excited about gathering together and utilizing the passion and skills of our community to create positive change.
