21 Ways to get involved with the A21 Campaign (8/21): send stuff


So today marks the final day of my first whole month of blogging!- 1 down, 11 more to go! Despite some minor set backs such as not having internet for most of this month, my Mac not working for a while and my phone not working properly, I am proud to say that I have managed to keep going so far! I also just wanted to take this time to say a huge thank you to everyone who has been so encouraging and supportive thus far! I really appreciate you all reading these posts and very much appreciate your words of encouragement! I have been so very surprised and blessed to see that there have been just shy of 900 views of this blog over the past month! Thank you! Keep sharing the posts and raising awareness of the many worthy causes! Also, please feel free to suggest causes that you would like me to post about: ronell1984@gmail.com (please put ‘blog post suggestion’ as the subject).

I am going to continue with the A21 Campaign’s 21 ways to help. Today’s suggestion (8 of 21) from the A21 Campaign to fight against modern day slavery and human trafficking: send stuff!  

Who doesn’t love giving gifts to those in need? This is a great opportunity for you to round up some friends or purchase gifts to women in the A21 Campaign’s care. You can send anything from new clothes to hygiene packs, toothbrushes to hair care products to their facilities and each gift goes directly to women in need. To send items (or gift cards), click here.

Sending items to an A21 shelter is a great way to get your friends together to make a tangible difference in the lives of the women in our care.
