Shopping for a cause

When Sendong struck Cagayan De Oro and Iligan in Mindanao a few days before Christmas last year, we knew we had to something. As a team, we at Bloggers United felt that in our own little way that we had to contribute. After seeing how much damage the typhoon caused, we really couldn't help it. And so, we went out of our way and organized a mini pop-up bazaar in partnership with Moonleaf. Together with a few bloggers, we sold our pre-loved items and donated the rest of the things we weren't able to sell. Moonleaf's marketing manager, Thyz, has accounted about P20,000 raised from the event plus a garage full of donated stuff.
It wasn't big but at it meant a lot to whoever received it because one of the most difficult things to do in life is starting over. And I just hope what we came up with was able to change even just one person, to move past this and live his life the way he used to.
Bloggers United Charity Site
Now, we are proud to have extended shopping for a cause by putting up Bloggers United Charity Site in partnership with Multiply. We would really like to thank Multiply for supporting all our endeavors and for believing in blogging's CSR side - community (not corporate) social responsibility.

When we first thought about it, we said, madali lang yan kasi charitable naman ang mga Filipinos. But of course, like any other projects, we realized that not everything is easy. We really need your help - either by shopping or by donating your wearable, good quality pre-loved items for us to sell on the site. Proceeds will ALL go to our chosen charity. Aisa is currently in the process of talking with the possible beneficiary. We need to reach P20,000 first before we turnover the money. After that, the next accumulated P20,000 will be given to the next beneficiary.
