Women Supporting Women with IBD

Thousands of women around the world live with Inflammatory Bowel Disease, or IBD. Girls With Guts was founded to support and empower women with IBD (Crohn’s disease & ulcerative colitis) and/or ostomies to ensure that women never feel isolated by their diagnosis. They offer a variety of programs like retreats, pen pal program, and even have something called a Butt Basket Program.

Butt Baskets are filled will all kinds of goodies to help women make it through their IBD-related surgery or to keep in their car for post-surgery accidents. Women can apply to receive one of these baskets free of charge a few days before their procedure.

These shirts helped Girls with Guts fundraise for one of their programs that provides recovery supplies for women after surgery.

Girls with Guts has sent more than 200 Butt Baskets to date, and they hope to continue this program for many more years. Their Bonfire campaign will help them restock their Butt Baskets for the coming year.
