Story
Homeless women will often have to choose between food and sanitary products. This is a necessity and is still not available for free. Sanitary products cost a lot of money and not only do many homeless women have to choose between food or tampons but some will be forced use tissues from fast food restaurants steal or go without.
It is 2017 and these women should not be denied basic hygiene care . As a female myself, I cannot even begin to understand how it would feel to be in this situation once a month.
I am raising money and taking donations of any of the items below to make feminine care packages to distribute to shelters and homeless women.
These care packages will include:
Pads
Tampons
Fragrance free baby wipes
Chocolate
