Shop for Christmas & help orphans

It’s Thanksgiving week in a season of diminished expectations. As long as we’re re-configuring our priorities, let me make the following recommendation. As you’re Christmas shopping, why not buy
something that makes a real difference in the world? Check out these
three options that take your buying power up from more than just
getting a great product. I know the people behind each business and can vouch for their integrity. With each purchase you bring hope to orphans,
widows, and women being rescued from the sex trade. You’re also
impacting their families and their communities! Who knew a t-shirt,
scarf, or purse could have that much power?
The proceeds from just one t-shirt is enough to feed an orphan in
Swaziland one meal a day for over a month!
The Sound of Hope is a music-driven campaign that raises money and
awareness for orphans in Swaziland, Kenya, and India. Find out more by
finding our fan page and group on Facebook, or add us as a friend on
myspace!
At Corridor Of Hope we are devoted to connecting orphans, poverty
stricken communities and YOU. We are the corridor, a passageway to help
people who can’t help themselves. We help bring them hope by bringing
you quality and affordable products from these countries. In turn,
Corridor Of Hope will donate these resources back into their
communities by supporting orphans, thereby empowering YOU to help in a
multifaceted way. We will bring you updates and newsletters regarding
the orphans and how your purchase made a difference in their lives.

feeding centers for orphans in Swaziland, Africa, where over 40% of the
population is HIV positive.
or grandmothers (called “gogos”) raising grandchildren that have been orphaned. Craft
sales help provide an income for these hard working women and their
families who would otherwise have little or none. This past week was pay day for the gogos in the Nsoko area who sew the purses and table runners. Nelisiwe received her first check and was so excited that she danced a little dance that Julie Anderson caught in a video below.

Hey Everyone,
I completely agree with Seth and his suggestions for Christmas shopping. I would also like to recommend this site, http://www.mojuproject.com. Every shirt you buy feeds an orphan for 1 month! The tag line for the site, “Fashioned to Save the World” means that everything you purchase through MojuProject.com goes towards saving a life!
This project is the fulfillment of a God-given vision and we believe its ministry is the heart of God- caring for the orphans. There are 143,000,000 orphans in the world.
Individually we can accomplish very little, but together, UNITED as the Body of Christ, we can SAVE the world!
For the One,
Jessica
I love this idea Seth!
Thanks for putting this post on your blog.
This is how we CAN help!
great stuff. I’m going to promote it on my blog. There’s also Saints coffe. It’s organic and 1 Ib. purchased equals an orphan fed for one month. http://saintscoffee.com/
