Give Back on Black Friday - #BrightFriday
Now this is something to shout about!
The world has gone crazy today for Black Friday deals but check out Bright Friday, an initiative from one of my favourite online stationery, party and gift stores Papermash, along with Chocolate Creative and Sian Zeng.
They are pledging 15% of all sales to Doctors of the World as their way of giving back on Black Friday.
They say "Doctors of the World has over 300 projects in more than 70 countries. Whether it’s providing essential healthcare to Syrian refugees or vaccinating children in Mali, we meet the health needs of vulnerable people globally. We also strive to give a voice to marginalised people across the globe, reporting on violence, injustice and unmet health needs wherever we find them.
In the UK, we run a clinic and advocacy programme in east London staffed by volunteers who provide medical care and practical support to excluded people such as vulnerable migrants, sex workers and people with no fixed address."
Head to their stores to see what goodies you might be tempted with. Papermash is my go to store for Rifle Paper Co loveliness.
