Sanitary Protection : HELP Girls Worldwide: Facebook Share! $1 Donated!

October 30, 2011 By Shelley Zurek 4 Comments

Provide Girls Sanitary Protection :  $1 Donated  For every Facebook Share!

 

Sanitary Protection

Sanitary Protection a Luxury Item for Many.

Sanitary Protection ? Can you imagine, in 2011, getting through “That Time of the Month” without adequate feminine sanitary protection? Worldwide, millions of adolescent girls lack affordable sanitary protection as it is a luxury item!  It’s hard to relate to  the devastating consequences for girls in developing countries who lack these supplies, many of whom can’t or wont attend school during their period?

Girls in Mukuru Narobi tell horrible stories of what it is like to go through their menstration without proper feminine sanitary protection . These girls expressed great discomfort and anxiety because they cannot attend school, be with their friends or often (especially with a heavy flow) leave the house!  The girls and their families try to come up with solutions like making pads out of old bits of clothing, mattresses or even reusing pads they find in the trash!  Your reaction might be “EWWWWW, how could they do that?”  But imagine what YOU would do if you couldn’t afford or didn’t have access to the wonderful disposable products that we have at our easy access?

Huru Develops a ReUsable Solution to provide Sanitary Protection

Huru® International began in 2008 and immediately developed an cost-effective and need addressing  solution to this real crisis.  They developed the Huru® Kits, a smart looking backpack that provides girls reusable sanitary napkins (they can be washed), underwear,  hygiene improving soap, educational materials and a bag for storage!  Isn’t that incredible? I find it amazing that  a need, so basic,  has to be met via charity!  Guess what? It’s so Easy for YOU to pitch in and help these girls get the sanitary protection they need!

 o.b.® Share It Forward program

o.b.® Brand is encouraging women everywhere to  help them raise  $25,000 to benefit  Huru® International.  With a  Huru® Kit costing $25 each–1000 girls will benefit and receive necessary sanitary protection and more!   For every user who shares the message about Huru® International’s mission with their network of friends via o.b.® brand Facebook applications, the o.b.® brand will donate $1 to Huru®.  YOU CAN ALL DO THAT!  How many times are you on Facebook a day doing useless junk?  Now you can take just a few seconds, visit the o.b.® Outreach tab on http://www.facebook.com/obmightysmall,  and share the message! $1 will be donated by  o.b.® brand to help a young girl via a Huru®  kit  for every user that shares the message on Facebook!!

“I wrote this review while participating in a campaign by Mom Central Consulting on behalf of o.b. and received a promotional item to thank me for taking the time to participate.”
