International Women's Day

International Women's Day

Happy International Women's Day! Thank you to everyone who shopped with us last month, as 10% of total sales were donated to Hamlin Fistula USA, which supports the Hamlin Fistula Hospitals & Hamlin College of Midwives in Ethiopia.

Dr. Catherine Hamlin and her late husband Reginald founded the hospital in 1974 and it is the only medical facility in the world dedicated solely to fistula repair. Now 90, she is still hard at work, and Ethiopia last month nominated Dr. Hamlin for the Nobel Peace Prize.
