July Donation

With your purchases, I donated $18 to Feeding America for the month of July!  Thank you.  Below is the donation receipt.  If you missed out on my Christmas in July sale I'm planning for at least one more sale this year, so check out the shop, or this blog, periodically for more information.

As you know, my goal is to donate $175 to Feeding America in 2016.  With this latest donation, I've donated a total of $92 to-date this year!  All the details can be found here: emeraldcut.blogspot.com/2016/01/meet-my-2016-goal.html

January Donation Made

#goodsforgood #givingback @ectiwshop

Great news!  With your help, I just made my first-ever monthly donation to Feeding America, which was $15 from your January purchases.  Thank you to everyone who participated this month--the note of thanks above lists the states/countries from which these purchases were made, along with a personalized handwritten message.  (Hopefully you can decipher my chicken-scratch handwriting.)  It means so much to me that I was able to contribute $15 this past month.  This donation couldn't have been made without your support, and it's my full-hearted hope that with each coming month the amount that I give to this charity will grow (full details in link at post's end).

To help facilitate this, I've been working steadily on creating new jewelry, which I recently posted a photo of on Instagram here--will share close-ups of these pieces later on this week on this blog.  (I'm still editing photos because I took close to 100 shots of just a handful of new pieces...photo editing is a slow, steady process with winter light.)

Here is the January 2016 donation receipt:

This year, I will donate $1, via each listing bought by you, to the food bank charity Feeding America.  A contribution will be made monthly, with the donation receipt--and handwritten thank-you note--posted on this blog.  Read all the details here.
