Bead for life
The event is an exciting opportunity to learn more about and support impoverished Ugandan women who are lifting their families out of poverty with their handmade, high-quality beaded jewelry, featured on NBC Nightly News, in O Magazine, Vanity Fair, Family Circle and other publications.
The event will also feature drink specials and teeshirts for sale to raise more donations. The teeshirts can be decorated and “graffitied” at the event says Jessi Marquez.
BeadforLife is a socially responsible global organization, working with women, all of whom were living on less than $1 a day in extreme poverty. Like extremely poor people worldwide our members have experienced many sorrows and difficulties. Yet they remain strong, resilient, and hopeful for a better life. Based in North America and Uganda, BFL has partnered with industrious women who make vivid beaded jewelry out of recycled paper. The 300 members of BFL support almost 5,000 others to climb out of poverty.
“BeadforLife’s philosophy is that people want jobs rather than handouts. We focus on ways for people to leave poverty behind forever,” says BFL Co- Director Devin Hibbard. “The beaders are incredibly hardworking, and every dollar they make goes into critical things, like sending children to school, paying for health care, and saving to build a home.”
The beaders’ work has been sold at thousands of home parties and businesses and community-sponsored events around the world. All net profits from BFL sales are invested in projects that fight extreme poverty, primarily in three key areas: health, affordable housing, and vocational training for impoverished youth, and entrepreneurial development through micro credit for small businesses.

Toms Shoes
ONE FOR ONE
TOMS Shoes was founded on a simple premise: With every pair you purchase, TOMS will give a pair of new shoes to a child in need. One for One. Using the purchasing power of individuals to benefit the greater good is what we're all about.
OUR STORY
In 2006 an American traveler, Blake Mycoskie, befriended children in Argentina and found they had no shoes to protect their feet. Wanting to help, he created TOMS Shoes, a company that would match every pair of shoes purchased with a pair of new shoes given to a child in need. One for One. Blake returned to Argentina with a group of family, friends and staff later that year with 10,000 pairs of shoes made possible by caring TOMS customers.
Since our beginning, TOMS has given over 150,000* pairs of shoes to children in need through the One for One model. Because of your support, TOMS plans to give over 300,000 pairs of shoes to children in need around the world in 2009.
Our ongoing community events and Shoe Drop Tours allow TOMS supporters and enthusiasts to be part of our One for One movement. Join us.
WHY SHOES?
Most children in developing countries grow up barefoot. Whether at play, doing chores or just getting around, these children are at risk.
Walking is often the primary mode of transportation in developing countries. Children can walk for miles to get food, water, shelter and medical help. Wearing shoes literally enables them to walk distances that aren't possible barefoot.
Wearing shoes prevents feet from getting cuts and sores on unsafe roads and from contaminated soil. Not only are these injuries painful, they also are dangerous when wounds become infected. The leading cause of disease in developing countries is soil-transmitted parasites which penetrate the skin through open sores. Wearing shoes can prevent this and the risk of amputation.
Many times children can't attend school barefoot because shoes are a required part of their uniform. If they don't have shoes, they don't go to school. If they don't receive an education, they don't have the opportunity to realize their potential.
There is one simple solution...SHOES.
Of the planet's six billion people, four billion live in conditions inconceivable to many. Lets take a step towards a better tomorrow.

The Yankee Donut
Mark Isreal, whose wild imagination drives the Doughnut Plant on the Lower East Side, has come up with an irresistible new delicacy, a crème brûlée doughnut. It’s bursting with rich custard and topped with shiny, crackling toasted sugar.
“I first made the vanilla cream a year ago,” Mr. Isreal said. “But everyone makes a doughnut with vanilla cream and I wanted to do something different.”
So after three months of work he is content with this creation. He hand-pipes cream into the doughnut, sugars the top and takes a blowtorch to it for the glaze.
They are $2.75 each, only at his store: 379 Grand Street (Essex Street), (212) 505-3700. (Other varieties can be found at places like Gourmet Garage), NY TIMES
