Review & Giveaway: Give-Jewelry -- CLOSED

Lately, FEATHERS are everywhere. FEATHER hair extensions, FEATHER earrings, FEATHER headbands, FEATHER necklaces, FEATHER EVERYTHING!

It’s very popular that you can pretty much find it anywhere you go.

I was recently given an amazing opportunity by Laura from
give-jewelry.com to host a review/giveaway just for you guys.

Give-Jewelry.com is an online store that promotes the 1-1-1 Movement.
I visited their
blog and their shop and let me tell you, it is very INSPIRATIONAL.

With every piece of jewelry you purchase, GIVE Jewelry is able to provide a week of nutritious food (that’s 21 meals!) for a child in genuine need.

Our Mission: Bringing and end to world hunger, one child at a time.


Photobucket
Wouldn’t it be great to be able to provide one week worth of food to a child in need?
All you would have to do is purchase at least ONE piece of jewelry and you are one step closer to changing the world.

Buy one piece of jewelry and they will donate one week worth of food in your name. How great is that?!

There is nothing better than knowing that you were able to help a person overnight.

Laura sent me 4 pairs of feather earrings which means that we were able to provide 4 weeks worth of food for one child.
I was so excited when she told me this. It’s a great feeling. :D

Photobucket
Along with the earrings, Give-Jewelry also gave me 4 "GIVE" stickers.
My job is to post them up anywhere so that anyone can see it.
That way, I'll be able to help spread the word about the movement.
I decided to stick them in a bus bench and a street lamp post.

  6. I am the co-president of an organization in st louis that adopts needy families during the holiday season. we work with our university community to gather love packages with warm clothes, home necessities, and gifts for the kids for a happy winter time. it's really rewarding to be able to make a difference and educate ourselves as well as our college community.

  21. I have done many volunteer projects through my school ranging from volunteering at food banks to running blood drives. I did the most of these projects through our Red Cross club on campus. We would volunteer at St. John Vianney during the holiday season to serve food and pass out blankets to the homeless. It taught me a lot and I continue to do it whenever I get the chance.

  35. I've volunteered at a retirement home & helped the elderly make crafts for their rooms. That was an amazing experience.

    I also led a donation drive to collect toys, food, and other items for a local animal shelter.

  39. when i was in high school, we volunteered at different places, and one place that really stood out to me is the LA food bank. we helped sort food for the needy, and it was such an eye-opening experience to see how many families are in dire need of food.
