Haiti Relief via Konbit Sante (and me and you)

Monday, February 1st, 2010

Haiti is still hurting.

Let’s help. Purchase anything from my etsy shop and I will donate half of the sale price to Konbit Sante|Cap-Haitian Health Partnership. Free shipping too! So far, my etsy shop has raised over $125! Hurry though, my small relief campaign will run through Tuesday, February 2!

Konbit is Haitian Creole for working together. Sante means health. I though it would be great if you and I did a little konbit of our own, hence the sale in my etsy shop. These folks have been working in Haiti for 10 years and have systems in place to get help where it needs to go, fast. Visit their website for news and to find out how your donations are being spent.

There are lots of other things you may find in the shop or may consider as a gift for a upcoming wedding, anniversary or birthday!

And, if you can’t find anything in my store, check out all the other talented and generous creative souls at etsy who are also finding ways to help Haiti.

Thank You! Thank You!

Pass the word. Pass the love. Buy good, do good.

Giving Thanks, Giving Back

Monday, November 16th, 2009

It’s November. The month of giving thanks. I am thankful for a roof over my head and a full belly. I realize there are those in my own community who have neither. That’s not right, but there is something I can do to ensure there are resources for those who wish to be safe, warm and full. Now through Thursday, November 19th I am donating 15% of every etsy sale to benefit local outreach programs at Preble Street. Read the article from Hand Made News below, then join me and other Maine artists as we give thanks and give back.
