I've donated. When I had more money and was doing Any Soldier packages regularly, tampons and pads were something I sent a lot of.
I am a bit put off by the "organic cotton tampons or chlorine-free pads". These items usually cost two or three dollars more than the usual grocery-store kind. This makes a reference to us taking our monthly trip down the feminine hygiene aisle for granted, but I know *my* feminine hygiene aisles don't sell organic cotton tampons and chlorine-free pads--and I'm in southern California! I think I'd take this a little more seriously if I didn't feel they were blowing money in order to get green products, which I myself can't afford and think it's just FUD behind them anyway.
