dandelion KIDS was invited to participate in the ‘Making Magic Fund’ by Suzanne of Green Planet Parties (http://www NULL.greenplanetparties NULL.com/) and Mommy Foot Print (http://mommyfootprint NULL.com/).
What is it? It’s a collaboration of many small businesses who want to give back. We are joining together with The Vancouver Sun Children’s Fund (http://www NULL.vansunkidsfund NULL.ca/) Adopt a school to help children. Between December 5-11th if you shop at these stores online – proceeds will be donated to help schools, which help children, helps families and helps our future.
The Vancouver Sun Children’s Fund launched a special fundraising project called Adopt-a-School. This project identifies schools (http://www NULL.google NULL.com/maps/ms?hl=en&mpa=0&ctz=480&mpf=0&ie=UTF8&msa=0&t=m&vpsrc=6&msid=205832093082833084183 NULL.0004b17d3a9dd525ec36f&ll=49 NULL.219391,-122 NULL.818909&spn=0 NULL.448493,0 NULL.793762&z=9&source=embed) and their specific needs throughout Metro Vancouver. The site tells you the individual needs within each school so everyone can identify something to donate (sports equipment, winter coats in particular sizes, mitten, socks, etc.) The most needed item identified by all the schools of course is money so they can assess and fix their most outstanding needs. The amazing thing about donating the money via Adopt-a-School is they will match all donations so the money is being doubled, hence why we are all donating 10% of our online sales. Let the giving begin!
