We are all still processing the incredible destruction and devastation in Japan.
Sakura Bloom, my favorite ring sling maker, has decided to help contribute to relief efforts – I’m passing along an email they sent me:
We are all heartbroken, watching the horrifying events that are unfolding in Japan. It is so easy to feel overwhelmed and helpless in the face of such massive suffering, and yet it is of paramount importance that we gather our resources and reach out to the victims in every way possible to help them survive and rebuild. It is in this spirit of hope and love that Sakura Bloom has decided to spearhead a three-day (March 15-17) fundraiser to benefit the Japan relief efforts.
We are raffling three slings from the Essential Collection. Winners will be free to choose between linen or silk in their favorite colorway.
Tickets are available for purchase by clicking here. The more you give, the more chances there are to win: $10 will get you one ticket, $25 will get you three tickets, and $50 will get you ten tickets.
All proceeds from this fundraiser will be donated to the American Red Cross.
Mommy jumped at the chance to donate, and would like to extend a further incentive to you. If you choose to donate yourself, either through Sakura Bloom or another agency, leave me a comment. If we win a sling in the raffle, we will pass it along to one of you!
*If we win a sling, we will choose a comment on this entry left before 3/18. The comment will be selected using random.org, and the winner will have 24 hours to get back to Mommy after notification or forfeit the prize… if there is one. There are a lot of “ifs” here, but it’s a good cause, so donate anyway!
