524,000 women die from complications of pregnancy and childbirth each year and of these deaths, 99% occur in impoverished, developing countries. For every woman who dies, another 40 or 50 suffer severe injuries and complications.
We are collecting used (and washed) tights from customers to send to the Addis Ababa Fistula Hospital in Ethiopia. The tights will be used to hold dressings in place when women suffer from childbirth injuries in particular when they suffer the Fistula condition. It can be very hard to hold these dressings in place and tights just happen to be the perfect solution

You can send any type of tights as long as they are washed and do not have ladders towards the top/waist of the leg. If you don’t have any tights to send in then you can buy tights online here.
Thank you for your help.
