I've mentioned this charity to a few people in the last week, and all of them responded with "Wow! How cool!"
For some reason, people seem to get really excited about charities they've never heard about before.
So, to provide some morning excitement...
You should all go and donate lots of money to Pads4Girls. Because they rock.
Pads4Girls aims to keep girls in third-world countries in school, by providing them with menstrual pads.
Normally, most of them don't have pads - so, every month, they miss a week of school. Over time, that adds up. So, this charity gives them a whole kit of cloth pads, so that they don't need to miss school while they're menstruating.
Go and donate!
