This Valentine Is Not Over
Scarleteen doubles your Valentines' dollar!

Teens have it rough when it comes to sex. In fact, teens in our own state are subject to the misdirection of abstinence-only sex education classes, when there is sex ed at all. Not to mention, Texas' third-place ranking in live birth rates for teens. Embarrassing! Dangerous! What's a horny teen to do?
Well, lucky for teens everywhere, there is Scarleteen.com, an online hub of open, honest sexual information for teens.
Teens should have access to this quality information. And if you feel the same way, you can head over to Double Dollar Valentines at Scarleteen.com and make a donation that will be worth twice the metaphorical bang for your buck. Donate before March 15, and one of their regular donors will match it up to $350 per donor or up to $3,000 total.
Pretty sweet deal if you can put your money where your mouth is.
