We will be mentioning Red Bag Day also known as Equal Pay Day, which marks the period of extra days in the current year which women need to work to achieve the same wages as men earned during the previous financial year.
Equal Pay Day is recognised in many countries around the world, with the exact day varying depending on the gender pay gap in any particular country.
BPW Franklin is marking the day by filling red bags with toiletries and other essentials, for women who arrive at the refuges with nothing. If you would like to contribute to helping these women please bring along toiletry items. Shine has made the following suggestions:-
The basics: are toothpaste, toothbrush, shower gel, shampoo, conditioner and deodorant.
Extras: wipes, face tissues, brush/comb, facecloth/sponge, lip balm, plasters, soap, hand gel, cotton bus, torch.
BPW will fill the Red bags and these will be presented to Carol Hubert from Shine, who is the February speaker. You are welcome to attend this too.
If you wish to attend and we hope you will join us, please prepay $30 text Marilyn 027 4799121 for payment details before 8pm on Sunday 24th and let her know if you have any special dietary requirements.
We look forward to meeting you next week.
We celebrate all women, in all their diversities. We embrace their facets and intersections of faith, race, ethnicity, gender or sexual identity, or disability. We celebrate those who came before us, those who stand beside us now, and those who will come after.

Franklin will celebrate on March 6th at the Pukekohe Cosmopolitan Club to celebrate the achievements of women, whether social, political, economic or cultural.
We love how creative some people are with their plant giving! This is for goodie bags for a 7 year olds party but we reckon you could borrow this wonderful idea for the Neighbours Day Aotearoa Great Plant Swap!
What a lovely gift to get and it's not just kids who love sunflowers.
