LOS ANGELES—Sssh.com, the erotica and sexuality website designed and maintained for women by women, has announced that Jackson Laboratory is the organization voted by the Sssh.com subscribers for the month of August to be the designated charity for its ongoing philanthropic donation program.
Sssh.com takes time and consideration that each organization is chosen based on a commitment to excellence, accomplishment of stated goals and ratio of funds distribution (direct application to the cause vs. administrative expense). The list of potential beneficiaries includes social, medical and environmental charities that get little attention and deserve so much more. Some are large associations known for touching lives in positive ways. Others are small but cutting-edge research foundations determined to cure debilitating diseases. Still others are cultural and community outreach programs devoted to enriching lives.
Jackson Laboratory is an independent, nonprofit focusing on research to advance human health. Their mission is to discover the genetic basis for preventing, treating and curing human disease, and to enable research for the global biomedical community. Their more than 1,400 employees located in Bar Harbor, Maine, and in Sacramento, California conduct genetic research, provide scientific services and genetic resources to laboratories around the world and, educate students of all ages through courses, internships and other programs.
Sssh.com’s members will select each month’s beneficiary – giving women a voice in ensuring dollars go where they will do the most good.
Each month’s beneficiary will be announced at the beginning of the following month. Organizations and foundations that would like to be included may email [email protected].
