A couple of years ago, Lunapads donated product for the girls in the community. This year when I re-visited the community I brought along the instructions/patterns/material and purchased a sewing machine so some local women could start sewing their own reusable pads. Just a couple of weeks ago, I contacted one woman to see how things were going. She was so very happy with the response she has received from women wanting to purchase the pads. So besides providing access to clean pads this one woman has found a way to earn income to help support her family - a win-win situation all around. Thank You Lunapads for sharing the caring.

So thanks for posting this.

How fantastic is Lunapads? Just by posting these videos the gesture is crystal clear. You and your company care more about the health and well-being of women than about becoming (ahem) rich from Lunapad production. I commend you for this! What an incredible concept: A business that cares about the consumer! It's so refreshing and encouraging to see. Love you gals and your products!

If you use cotton fleece, one layer inside should do. Karen,
