Bras and tampons are not our normal topics. This episode, though, shines a spotlight on this basic human necessity and comfort most women take for granted and most men try not to think much about at all. Dana Marlowe was out on a rare shopping trip when she heard four words that launched her into action. She had no idea so many women in this country and others are faced with no access to basic products for feminine menstrual hygiene, or even something as simple as a bra. All it took was one look into that world, and she knew she had to do her part to help these women alleviate some stress and restore some dignity to their lives in the midst of troubled times. Today, Dana's organization I Support the Girls has sent over 2.5 million menstrual products and 500,000 bras to areas decimated by natural disasters, to shelters for homeless women or domestic violence survivors, and where the need is present, that she can meet. Listen in as this vibrant, dedicated mother, entrepreneur, and advocate shares this little known need, and offers insight into how you can turn your own inspiration into action.
