Partnering with MedShare!

Me and MedShare CEO and President Charles Redding
I am happy to announce that my nonprofit Maya's Ideas 4 The Planet has partnered up with a wonderful organization called MedShare! I started a project where I have designed and created eco-friendly sanitary pads for girls in 3rd world countries. MedShare will help with the distribution of the pads. MedShare is a nonprofit organization dedicated to improving healthcare and the environment through the efficient recovery and redistribution of the surplus of medical supplies and equipment to those most in need. MedShare has impacted 96 countries around the world. Learn more about my pads for girls project at http://mayasideas4theplanet.org/ and support MedShare at http://medshare.org/
