Many Thanks to these organizations that have worked with Dosti!


























































Girls, Incorporated of the YWCA of Dayton  raised money for Dosti as their July service project. The bake sale they held over the lunch hour in Downtown Dayton July 16, 2009 raised over $300 dollars.








Kisha Foster, Director of Teen Services at the YWCA, reports that a team around 30 Girls Inc, girls worked amazingly hard: in addition to making the baked goods that were sold, the girls made and distributed signs promoting the bake sale throughout the downtown area, and these signs also let potential customers know that the money would go to support educational resources for teen girls in Pakistan.

Thanks to Ms. Ladonna, cook in the Shelter & Housing Department of the YWCA for donating the lemonade.
Girls, Incorporated, is a national organization with the mission of "inspiring all girls to be strong, smart, and bold."
