This last Christmas, The Burnout Queens decided to add a little sparkle to girls’ and womens’ lives. We decided it’s time to put our Christmas Chaos Campaign into action.
Ladies who read us…and get our philosophy…were asked to purchase our It’s Beginning to Look A Lot Like Chaos video and learn how to create delight in the holidays, instead of dread! As an incentive we decided to send all the proceeds…yes 100% +…to WaterAid to help young girls get an education rather than walking all day to gather water for their village. The purchase + our donation match + UK governments match.
Well…proud to say that we got some lovely hearted women on board and we raised £50.00 for WaterAid. So like all good women after Christmas….we shopped! Here’s what we got with your help, our help and the government’s help: a bag or 2 of cement, enough to build the foundations of a village loo!!
And because a woman can’t just stop at bags, we thought a little red toolkit was the perfect accessory. This red toolkit will fix the water supplies in not 1, but 10 villages.
Now that’s what I call a shopping spree. It was fantastically fun to know that your £2 expanded to give young girls the chance to open a book or two and help her village for the future in a different and important way.
And we hope that those of you who helped in this global way, found some fun and merriment in the suggestions we gave on our latest edition of It’s Beginning To Look A Lot Like Chaos.
Till next year’s campaign kicks off with another offering. Thanks from us to all our Burnout Queen friends. Your generosity is uplifting.
With love, The Burnout Queens xx
