You Can Help - and it's so easy!
You can help women in shelters by just clicking your mouse. Check out Seventh Generation website:

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.

It's easy - so simple. Put it on your favorites list and stop by often. Thanks!

Very cool. Thanks for telling us about that. I went and did a virtual donation. I will make sure I do that often.
This reminds me of something that happened to us yesterday. We went to Walmart and there was a lady standing at the entrance with a sign that said "hungry, need food and gas" I hate just giving people that have signs cash because you never know if they will actually use it for food or gas. While we were in Walmart we bought her a cooked roasted chicken and a 2 liter of Coke. When we gave it to her she was so thankful and gave us the biggest smile. I think I am going to blog about this in the next few days.
Caroline: I think it's very cool to give tangible items instead of just money. You did a good thing. :)
SeasonalKat: Thanks for passing along the info. Every bit helps.
