As you may be aware, all SPARQ products are milled in
Denver, Colorado using soapstone from manufacturing scraps that were destined
for the landfill. Most of the worlds supply of soapstone originates from Brazil,
where according to UNICEF, about 42% of children live in poverty with and
estimated 1/8 of them living on the streets.
We found out it only costs $1 per day to feed a child in
Brazil. So, in an effort to support the communities we operate in, we have
initiated the Feed a Child Project to feed impoverished children in Brazil. Our
initial goal is to raise $100,000 by World Hunger Day 2012.
In effort to expand our scope, we have asked our retail
partners to join the cause by giving $1 of their sales to the cause when our
customers purchase products on their websites. This is where you can help! |
