Sssh.com to Donate Percentage of Revenue to The Mary Rose

BOSTON — Sssh.com, the erotica and sexuality website designed and maintained for women by women, announced that The Mary Rose was the chosen organization to receive a donation as voted by the Sssh.com subscriber community for the month of January.

The Mary Rose is based in Portsmouth Historic Dockyard in the U.K. Built between 1509 and 1511, The Mary Rose was one of the first ships able to fire a broadside, and was a firm favorite of King Henry VIII. After a long and successful career, she sank accidentally during an engagement with the French fleet in 1545.

The world watched as she was raised, in 1982, after 437 years underwater. Her rediscovery and raising were seminal events in the history of nautical archaeology. The Mary Rose and her treasures tell a fascinating story about Tudor life and times. Twenty one years after the hull of the Mary Rose was brought to the surface, archaeologists are again diving on the wreck-site.

Their goal is to recover objects left buried within the seabed outside the hull, together with any remains of the hardware left over from the original excavation. Special events are consistently held by the Mary Rose Trust. This coming spring, Emmy Award-Winning Costumes from the series ‘the Tudors’ will go back on display at the Mary Rose Museum. The Mary Rose Trust is delighted to again be able to display some of the costumes, which were worn during the final season of the Emmy Award-winning series ‘The Tudors’ starring Jonathan Rhys Meyers.

Sssh.com said it takes time and consideration that each organization is chosen based on a commitment to excellence, accomplishment of stated goals and ratio of funds distribution. The list of potential beneficiaries includes social, medical and environmental charities that get little attention and deserve  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 while others are cultural and community outreach programs devoted to enriching lives.

 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 editor@sssh.com.
