I've been trying to live healthier and in a way that is more eco-conscious and promotes green living. So when I recently discovered Cora pads and tampons, I decided to switch to the brand for my feminine hygiene needs. So far, I've been very happy!
Not only are the products better for my body and the planet (they are made using ethically sourced organic cotton), the company is committed to giving back to girls and women on a global scale. With nearly 25 million women in the U.S. living below the poverty line, and young girls in third world countries not having access to feminine care products, Cora has partnered with non-profits across the country to provide more than 100,000 products to women in need in the U.S. and gives a percentage of profits to support young girls in Kenya through the ZanaAfrica Foundation. For every month's supply purchased from Target, Cora gives a month's supply of sustainable pads to a girl in need in India.
Cora is also a huge proponent of economic equality. In the majority of states in America, mentstrual products continue to be taxed as a luxury, further perpetuating economic inequality between men and women. As a sign of protest against this unjust and sexist tax, Cora pays the sales tax on all products sold through the website.

All of Cora's pads are free of:
Cora's Organic Tampons (available with or without an applicator) are just as good. They are hypoallergenic, biodegradable and vegan. They are free of:
