One-click help for women in shelters

[Oeditpus Rex]

Passing this along from a MySpace friend:


7th Generation, a green-friendly paper products company, will donate one box of all-cotton tampons or pads to a women's shelter in any state you choose when you click on the link below. As far as I can tell, it's legitimate and will be a much-needed aid for these small shelters.

Women's shelters in the U.S. go through thousands of tampons and pads monthly, and, while agencies generally assist with everyday necessities such as toilet paper, diapers, and clothing, this most basic need is often overlooked. You and I may take our monthly trips down the feminine care aisle for granted, but, for women in shelters, a box of tampons is five dollars they can't spare. Here's some good news: you can help us contribute to rectifying this situation by making a virtual donation!

For each virtual donation, Seventh Generation will send a pack of organic cotton tampons or chlorine-free pads to a shelter in your state.
