Dear Sir/Madam,

My name is Mercy Mabian, the president of Oroko Cultural Association, Inc in United States of America. Oroko Cultural Association is a not-for-profit/tax exempt organization as defined by IRS Code 501(c) (3). Oroko is a tribe located in remote areas of Ndian and part of Meme Divisions of Southwest Cameroon Region in West Africa. With the assistance of sponsors, we provide assist to Oroko children living in the villages, through “Sponsor an Oroko Child Project”. This project caters for the interests, growth, and development of all Oroko children living in the villages, attending Primary and Secondary Schools. It provides financial assistance to Oroko children motivating them to reach their full potential. Please see our website www.angelsfororokochildren.org for more details.
Due to the extreme hunger and poverty in these areas, parents can not afford feminine hygiene products for their children. Girls from 11years to 17years are forced to miss classes for seven days each month during their menstruation because of lack of feminine hygiene products. As a result, they get behind in their school lessons and eventually drop out of school. We receive our funding from generous and sympathetic people like you and also from companies like yours. Will you help us meet our goal of placing Reusable Sanitary Pads in each girl’s hand? These girls need 2,000 feminine hygiene products for 100 schools in the area.
Please send your donation to the address above with the check payable to Oroko Cultural Association, Inc. and the purpose for (always written on the bottom left of your check) should be “Feminine Hygiene for Oroko Girls.” On the other hand, please send your gift to the address above. The value of your gift(s) and postal cost will be sent to you for tax purpose. We will recognize your gift(s) with labels on each one that will tell all our student girls that it was you who invested in their academic success. In addition, your name or your company’s name and logo will be added to our website as our sponsor. Your gifts will have significant impact on their abilities to maintain their studies and successfully graduate. Thank you for partnering with our student girls

Best wishes

We were just in this conversation the other day… We were talking about how everything is single serve and throw away today, and how rough it is on the environment.

Great Post. I’m going to push this link around a little bit.
