I recently purchased a bracelet from the Do Ubuntu Bracelet campaign and received this email:


Dear Liora,

Thank you for your recent purchase of the handcrafted, DO Ubuntu bracelet. Profits from your purchase are being donated to, Children of the World, an orphanage in Ethiopia. As we continue to grow, profits will be donated to orphanages that slip through the cracks of conventional funding.

These organizations do tremendous work and are on the verge of collapse due to an inability to access funding through the Global Fund.

100% of the profits go directly to providing orphaned children with food, education and shelter. 25 million children will be orphaned by 2010, only two years from now. The growing number of orphans is overwhelming local communities and churches. Thank you for shining a light on Africa; it's a desperately dark place right now.

DO wear your bracelet to show you care and to let people know there is an orphan crisis. Through the spirit of Ubuntu, we can all help spread the word and make this campaign grow.

Thank you!
