There's always a way. I've joined Hearts for Haiti, an Etsy shop where artists of all kinds have donated items, proceeds of which go to Doctors without Borders/Médecins sans frontières, an organization I got to know when I worked on a medical publication.
Here's part of the shop's announcement:
This is an Etsy collective of donated items from hundreds of Etsy shops to raise money to rebuild Haiti. 100% of the proceeds from this shop (minus Etsy fees and Paypal fees) go directly to DoctorsWithoutBorders (http://doctorswithoutborders.org ). This shop has permission to use the DoctorsWithoutBorders name and a separate bank account and Paypal account have been opened to maintain the integrity of this shop.
Have a browse!
.....you are always first on the spot when it comes to helping out Colette...you have a big, big heart!!! What a excellent way to add to the fund.What a brilliant idea, whoever thought of doing it.These poor souls need every penny they can get, and even that won't mend their hearts.
ReplyDeleteI shall visit Etsy later and trawl through to find a Colette offering.
Have a happy weekend doing what you like and liking what you do!
