Partnering with My Customers and World Vision.
I love partnering with my customers to help create a better life for women, children, and families living in poverty around the world. Every time someone purchases an Ordinary Mommy Design piece 10% of the sale is donated toward this cause through World Vision. Every single sale, 365 days a year. I feel that we make a bigger impact when I save up until the end of the year and then choose the direction I want these funds to go in all at once. On December 31, 2011 with the help of my customers, I purchased a bicycle to provide a girl with safer transportation, and procured small business loans for four single mothers. This is always such a thrill for me!
Thanks so much for partnering with me in this way. I can't wait to see the impact we can have at the end of 2012!

Giving Back.
It's just about time for me to make my end-of-year donation to World Vision! 10% of each and every sale I make in the shop 365 days a year goes to this organization; they provide all kinds of services and meet tons of needs for those living in poverty around the world. Last year, I chose to make my donation in the form of buying farm animals and fruit trees to give families in Africa and Asia a means to provide income or food for their families. So far this year I've also given money for disaster relief in Japan and Alabama. Farm animals are just one potential gift: World Vision also provides help to sexually exploited girls, offers impoverished women business loans, and digs wells to provide clean water, among other things. I'm excited to peruse my Wold Vision gifts catalog again, and make my final decisions as to where I want my monetary gift to go!
Thanks so much to all of my customers for making this possible!
