The message of my post was to encourage you to be intentional with the gifts you buy this holiday season (good), and to highlight an online store that works to better the lives of others (really good).
Oh, and I also mentioned a little something, something about free merchandise.
Let's find out who won that giveaway, shall we?
(email subscribers, please click here to view video)
What was it that she won? A pair of these from Delicate Fortress Creations, a store that provides products created by artisans escaping forced prostitution, modern day slavery, and extreme poverty.
Happy Thanksgiving, friends. I hope the upcoming days are filled with mounds of mashed potatoes, perfect pieces of pumpkin pie, and loads of time with the ones you love.

K,
Truly. Did you like the emphasis on love? She kills me.
ps Totally weird putting a video of myself up. I don't know how people do vlogs all the time.
Amy,
I am so glad I popped over here. I work with the youth ministry at my church, and all of us leaders had to pick a mission and a mission month, I chose Human Trafficking, and I have been searching for the right organization to donate the tithes we collect from the students, so I will definitely be checking out this website. I am not sure how involved you are with Human Trafficking but if you know of some good organizations I could check out, I would love it if you could refer them to me, I am not looking for an organization that does exclusively forced prostitution but hits on a few different areas of slavery that I can present to the students.
Thanks again for posting this, sorry about the long comment.
Awesome job drawing Amelia!! Come on over Amber! Send me an email at info@delicatefortress.com with your punjammie pick. :)
