I want to thank those of you who purchased items from my shop over the weekend to help support relief efforts in Haiti. In the end I decided to donate 100% of the sales to
Oxfam America. Although it was a small amount, every little bit helps. I know that many of you have already donated to your favorite charities or through your places of worship, and may be experiencing a bit of "donor fatigue" with so many requests for help coming your way. Even so, I want to raise your awareness about a very special Etsy shop:
Hearts for Haiti is a collective of
Etsy shopkeepers who have donated items to raise money for
Medicins Sans Frontieres/Doctors Without Borders. You may want to take a look around, as there is a category for
Vintage Goodies. Theresa of
Faerie Moon Creations has also listed several lovely
limited edition necklaces! So please, help spread the word.
Thanks so very much for mentioning Hearts for Haiti on etsy - they've raised a great deal of money so far for Doctors without Borders. I'm happy to be a part of the collaborative. Every little bit helps, so thanks as well to you for what you have done to raise awareness and funds.
ReplyDeleteThanks for contributing to Hearts for Haiti - the devastation there has just been mind-blowing.
