Sevenly: T.A.P.S.- for the children of fallen soldiers...

This week on Sevenly, your purchase helps a child cope with the heartbreak of losing a parent who has served in the U.S. Armed Forces.

Everyday thousands of U.S. servicemen and women lay down their lives and risk everything to serve their country. These men and women are heroes. For those who have lost their lives due to the effects of war, they leave behind more than a legacy, they leave behind a family. The effects of losing a parent can be life-shattering for a young child.

Founded out of tragedy in 1994, TAPS has established itself as the front line resource to the families and loved ones of our military men and women. TAPS provides comfort and care through comprehensive services and programs including peer based emotional support, case work assistance, connections to community-based care, and grief and trauma resources.

Sevenly: Autism Awareness Campaign

In honor of Autism Awareness Month, Sevenly is kicking this week off by supporting families affected by autism.

Autistic children are still just that: children. They love to play and learn and explore, but their minds process the world, other people and their own emotions and senses a little differently. I teach a little boy with ASD and he is every bit as inquisitive, excitable and entertaining as all the other children in my class!- he is amazing, in fact! He has a fantastic support system between his family and the people that support them both in and out of school and I have witnessed first hand what a difference this level of support (time, financial and advice) can make to a child with autism and their family. With your help, Sevenly can provide the help necessary to make that a reality for these AUSOME individuals! You can shop for tshirts and hoodies online to support this cause. You can also go to their ‘Our Love Is Loud’ section to buy other items to support this cause.

Help raise awareness of this cause by liking and sharing on facebook and retweeting and following on twitter.

Blessings!

Sevenly: Seven Days of Change

Imagine a Reality TV show that follows the weekly challenges of Sevenly, a 30 person, for-profit company in Orange County, California, that runs a different campaign every week to raise funding and awareness for charities that are changing the world. Well, Sevenly is now aiming even bigger than before and attempting to reach even further to make a positive impact on the world. They are in fact planning to expand into the realm of reality TV and to create a show unlike any other show out there! They believe that TV can change lives and are currently raising money to create a pilot to pitch to the big networks.

The show will be called "7 Days of Change". The concept is to get inside the lives of people living through the world’s hardest issues; witness the Sevenly team implement a life-changing solution in seven days—what normally might take months to accomplish. Rally behind charities as they passionately come beside everyday heroes who are struggling and pressing forward, failing and succeeding, and celebrating – as they fight, for Seven Days of Change.



The show will focus on the challenges facing the Sevenly team, the charitable organization being featured, and individuals affected by the cause. By weaving these three stories together, the show will invite the audience to participate in an inspirational series of hope, activism, and change.
