Projects & Events

Since the start of SaniNaps in 2013, we have had many projects and sewing events take place. Those events have yielded great results, including over 4,720 DFG Sanitary Kits and over 50+ sewing events!

The "ORIGINATORS" sewing CLUB

After the idea of making reusable sanitary napkins was realized, this group of individuals, made up of family and friends, were the first to initiate the design and sewing process for SaniNaps. In 2015, we discovered DFG and we were able to partner and adapt their design.
