do it for the kids

im a sucker for charities. my way of keeping my karma in balance. but when you combine my love for shopping with my money going towards a good cause (not just in some retailers pocket).....SOLD! so what is this charity?





their website says:
"Falling Whistles gives a small window into our world’s largest war. Originally just a journal written about boys sent to the frontlines of war armed with only a whistle, readers forwarded it with the same kind of urgency in which it was written and demanded to know – what can we do?

The Falling Whistles campaign launched with a simple response - make their weapon your voice and be a whistleblower for peace in Congo. Read the story and buy the whistle. Proceeds will help restore the lives of war-affected kids. Share their story and speak up for them.

Together, we'll become the voice of a growing coalition for peace in the Democratic Republic of Congo."

how do you get involved? EASY! buy a whistle necklace or a tshirt. pricing isn't bad either. now get over to www.fallingwhistles.com and make me proud! :)







ps: make sure you read the story. its very moving...crazy the things that kids go through.
