Here’s another dose of reality for me.

Thomas may have had trouble starting school - big troubles in his world. In the grand scheme of things, however, this trauma was a small and normal part of growing up.

Imagine the very different problems of school girls all over the world, girls who go to school but for a few days each month. They stay home because they lack something many women take for granted: menstrual products. Their education suffers, as does their self esteem.

To help, Goods 4 Girls and Crunchy Chicken are donating hand-sewn menstrual pads to girls in Africa. You can donate pads or money through their sites.
