Their name is an homage to Lisa Brown, a former Michigan state rep who, when in office, was banned from the statehouse floor for using the word vagina when arguing against a transvaginal ultrasound bill. When she asked what she SHOULD say, they suggested something less provocative like “lady parts.” The offensive nature of men uncomfortable with the word vagina, but perfectly comfortable legislating it, inspired the name.

We then created a digital outreach campaign with interviews, videos, youth blogs, and stunning photography, raising over $150,000 for Heifer’s continuing work in India.
