Green-Pink Project

green pink party

Green-Pink Parties provide an easy way for you to unite the women's rights and environmental movements, help change lives, and have fun! By hosting a Green-Pink Party, we hope that you and your guests will:

  1. Be able to articulate the connection between women’s rights and the environment, and how they are related to the problem of fistula.
  2. Feel empowered by raising $300—the equivalent of the cost of life-changing surgery to one woman with fistula.
  3. Be inspired by what you have to share this information with others.

You don't have to be an expert on these issues in order to host a party-all it takes is a desire to make a difference! When you sign up to host a Green-Pink Party, we will send you a FREE Green-Pink Party Kit that includes everything you'll need to organize a fun and successful event: a step-by-step party-planning guide, fact sheets, invitations, fliers, two short DVDs, green & pink condoms, and more!
