Shopping with a difference
Hi Everyone!
Today's post has been on my mind for a very long time now. It's something very close to my heart... On my last visit to Cotton On Galleria the lady at the counter asked me if I'd like to make a donation by purchasing a bracelet or a bottle of water. I was pleased to do so. The proceeds go to the Cotton On Foundation.
The Cotton On Foundation is aimed at reducing poverty and improving the lives of those in need. This is a great initiative as it focuses on four pillars: Education, Health Care, Sustainability and Infrastructure. They funds projects in Australia and Uganda. They work relatively close to the Nelson Mandela Foundation and Caring 4 Girls here in South Africa.
Another great initiative that I've come to learn about is the M.A.C AIDS fund. It was launched in 1994 and it is a safety net for people living with and affected by HIV/AIDS. With every purchase of M.A.C VIVA GLAM lipstick or lip gloss proceeds go to the M.A.C AIDS Fund. One lipstick can provide a family with a healthy home cooked meal, deliver emergency boxes to communities etc etc. It is amazing what one lipstick or lip gloss can do.
Psst Guys! Ladies love M.A.C if you buy lipstick for your lady you're also contributing to a good cause ;).
On your next trip to the mall please keep in mind how your shopping can help someone else's life. Even a trip to KFC can make a difference. YOU can add hope by just adding R2 to your meal purchases. By doing this you're actually buying a meal for a hungry child! Isn't that awesome!
To read more about these great initiatives you can visit the sites below:

M.A.C Aids Fund - www.macaidsfund.org
Add Hope - www.addhope.co.za
There are so many great charities out there. I'm only sharing with you guys the one's I've come across with. Please comment below with your experiences. I would totally appreciate that.
I hope this post will inspire you to do your bit in making this world a better place for all. You can make your trip to the mall one with a difference.
Until next time lovies!
