**Each Dress A Girl Around the World chapter is semi-autonomous, in that we know what dresses are requested by the missions to whom we send.  In our SF Bay Area chapter, we will only accept the sundress pattern unless you have made prior arrangements with us to make a dress using another pattern.  Please make sure that you follow both our INSTRUCTIONS and GUIDELINES when submitting dresses.

Dress A Girl SF Bay Area is a chapter of the national organization Dress A Girl Around the World, which is a Campaign under Hope 4 Women International (a world-wide 501 (c) 3 non profit organization) bringing dignity to women around the world since 2006. View Sponsored Women from the years 2018 to current years!
