Meet Mavis Anartey—an alumna and community member of CAMFED (The Campaign for Female Education), our powerhouse global nonprofit partner that actually implements the School Days Project! 

At Marcella, we believe education to be one of the world's most powerful gifts—by transforming one life, it can touch a thousand more. This belief in the foundation of our School Days Project, a collaborative mission with CAMFED to advance girls globally. Every Marcella order you place normally helps fund three school days for a girl in Sub-Saharan Africa, where poverty keeps millions of girls out of the classroom. The "school day" we support via CAMFED includes the one-day cost of potentially her books, uniform, school fees, transportation, lunch, menstrual pads and more—as tailored by need, EVERYTHING that girl needs to go to school for one day. Since launching in 2021, our initiative has now supported 912,678 school days.

Today, we're literally doubling down on that initiative—for each purchase on our site during Giving Tuesday, we'll fund SIX full days of education for a girl in need. With your help today, we’ll be making twice the impact of our customary school days contribution with each order placed.

Giving Tuesday reminds us that true generosity isn't confined to a single day—it's a continuous thread that connects us to each other and to possibilities we've yet to imagine. Every generosity, big or small, sparks a cycle of compassion that reaches lives we may never see.

Thank you for being part of this journey with us!
Team Marcella
