All the ways you can help…
From simply sharing about our work with your community (online or IRL)…
To contributing financially if you are in a position to do so!

- NO COST TO YOU:
- Please share posts and articles from the Lead Safe Mama website on your social media channels. Your shares help us earn about one penny per page view (and sometimes more!) in support of the work we’re doing.
- Before you start any Amazon shopping you have planned, click on a Lead Safe Mama affiliate link (here’s one of those Lead Safe Mama, LLC affiliate links). In this way, we may earn a percentage of what you spend at no extra cost to you. You DO NOT have to buy anything we link to for us to receive a percentage of what you spend!
- Before you start any shopping with any one of our two active affiliate partners, click on one of our affiliate links and we will receive a percentage of what you spend at no extra cost to you. We have very few affiliate partners as we are very picky about who we invite to partner with us. Different from other businesses who have affiliate partners, for us to collaborate with a manufacturer in this way they must have a fully non-toxic line of products (which we verify via XRF testing) before we invite them to work with us. Here are our current affiliate partners:
- Naturepedic — use our code LeadSafe15
- 15% contributed back to Lead Safe Mama, LLC + 15% discount to Lead Safe Mama Community Members
- Ahimsa — use our code LeadSafeMama
- 18% contributed back to Lead Safe Mama, LLC + 15% discount to Lead Safe Mama community members
- Naturepedic — use our code LeadSafe15
- Ways you can send $$$… Again, any amount helps. (Please note: Lead Safe Mama, LLC is NOT a nonprofit, so contributions are NOT tax-deductible — just made in support of a good cause, and deeply–appreciated!)
- GoFundMe: https://www.gofundme.com/f/leadsafemamas-lead-poisoning-prevention-advocacy
- Venmo: @TamaraERubin (confirmation digits: 3182) — we also have @LeadSafeMama but Venmo charges a higher fee for contributions made to that account
- Zelle: 503-702-2708 (Lead Safe Mama, LLC’s Bank of America account)
- PayPal: Lead Safe Mama, LLC (@LeadSafeMama) — PayPal email: Tamara Rubin@Mac dot com
- All income received through any of these sources is reported as business income to Lead Safe Mama, LLC.
- Hire Tamara! (You could pay now for an event or consultation later in 2024 to help us reach our goals.)
- Hire Tamara for a one-on-one home consultation. More on that here.
- Hire Tamara for a zoom consultation. More on that here.
- Hire Tamara for a testing party with your friends! More on that here.
- Hire Tamara for a community outreach or corporate event. More on that here.
- Hire Tamara for corporate consulting or to help with a legal case or legal initiative. More on that here.
- Become a Corporate Sponsor of Lead Safe Mama, LLC’s work!
- We have a few corporate sponsorship options and — if you have a business that might benefit from working with us — we would love to discuss these opportunities with you.
- Our Newsletter Sponsorship has two slots available right now — you can learn more about them here.
- Our Website Advertising Sponsorship has three (side-bar) slots available — you can learn more about those here!
- Thanks for considering these opportunities!
- Short Term Loan! (This would support our consolidation of some of the debt related to our Federal Civil Rights legal case — more about that here.)
- If possible, a short-term loan (about one year) of any amount between $50,000 and $100,000 would help Lead Safe Mama, LLC consolidate some of the more important debt related to our Federal Civil Rights legal case.
- If someone were to make a loan in this range to Lead Safe Mama, LLC, we would use the funds to pay off several of the smaller interest-free loans that friends and readers made to help cover the costs of our legal battle. In that way, we would no longer have an obligation to a handful of very generous people who have been incredibly patient over the past 8+ years while waiting for this to resolve!
- Given recent earnings of Lead Safe Mama, LLC (specifically earnings due to increased readership on this website), we anticipate we would be able to pay off any loans of this type in 12 to 18 months or less; we would also be happy to pay some amount of (reasonable, low) interest (as that is required [officially] when a loan is made to a business).
- Please contact me personally at Tamara Rubin@Mac dot com if this is something you might be able to help with.
