SOCIAL IMPACT INITIATIVES

COATS FOR CHRISTMAS

CAN YOU SPARE A PAIR OF SHOES?

THE KINDNESS PROJECT

Coats for Christmas works with the community and local partners to collect new coats and socks to help those enduring poverty and home-lessness keep a little warmer during Winter.

Our goal is to develop volunteer chapters of Coats for Christmas in other cities

Appeals for coats are conducted in collaboration with community part-ners, and via newsletters, social media, at in person events, and by requesting coats from retailers.

Coats are then awarded to reci-pients via partnerships with shelters for people without homes.

Can You Spare a Pair of Shoes? is a targeted program to raise funds that will be donated to the Sunflowers Orphanage, an N.G.O. in Zambia established for the orphaned survivors of parents who’ve died of AIDS. In order for these orphans to attend school, shoes are one of the most desperately needed and out-grown commodities. The Sunflowers Orphanage has been led by a trusted past colleague of Amy Serrano.

Currently, there are about 120 children at the orphanage with some who are also HIV positive

This campaign will inspire a kinder and better world at the local, national, and global level. By way of 3 compelling social media kind-ness campaigns that aspire to go viral and multiply our outcomes, we will challenge and inspire others to exponentially expand acts of kindness in our world.

This campaign is the reason we exist. To have our work lead to a kinder and better world. We can not wait to share this with you!

More info will be out soon.
