Description
Donation card for Condom Sense campaign on St. Valentine's Day, 14 February, 1992. Second page (after cover page) is entitled "Irish Problem - Real Solution Condom Sense! Promoting Planning and Protection." States that "Condom Sense! has been established to campaign for legislative change." Explains the aims of the campaign, which are "to ensure that condoms are widely available in accessible venues throughout the country", and act as "advocates for education on the need for, and correct use of condoms." Third page provides facts and quotes from other sources to argue for the effectiveness of condoms in blocking the transmission of disease and preventing unplanned pregnancies. Notes that "[a]anonymity at point of sale must be a priority in any legislation to improve access to condoms." Also references the European Parliament who "recently stated that any serious plan to increase public access to condoms must include automatic distribution facilities." Fourth and final page is the donation card with a list of handwritten names and telephone numbers. Requests to "Please return to P.O. box: 3367, Dublin 4 - before 12 February, 1992."
