Many women and girls in need are without what we often take for granted. Donate your gently used bras or purchased menstrual products to be distributed by Hanseatic Help to homeless, refugee and abused women. And/or please contribute to our underwear drive. So far, we have raised enough to purchase 425 pairs of underpants from our previous fundraiser. Help us reach our goal of 500 pairs by World Refugee Day, June 20, with your donation: 2.50€ for 1, 12.50€ for 5 and 25€ for 10 pairs. If we make or go over 500, total pairs will be matched by an anonymous donor. Let's help other women be able to focus on something other than whether they have clean underwear or a tampon.

Please transfer your donation to American Women’s Club Hamburg
