As you’re Christmas shopping, why not buy
something that makes a real difference in the world? Check out these
three options that take your buying power up from more than just
getting a great product. With each purchase you bring hope to orphans,
widows, and women being rescued from the sex trade. You’re also
impacting their families and their communities! Who knew a t-shirt,
scarf, or purse could have that much power?
The proceeds from just one t-shirt is enough to feed an orphan in
Swaziland one meal a day for over a month!
The Sound of Hope is a music-driven campaign that raises money and
awareness for orphans in Swaziland, Kenya, and India. Find out more by
finding our fan page and group on Facebook, or add us as a friend on
myspace!
At Corridor Of Hope we are devoted to connecting orphans, poverty
stricken communities and YOU. We are the corridor, a passageway to help
people who can’t help themselves. We help bring them hope by bringing
you quality and affordable products from these countries. In turn,
Corridor Of Hope will donate these resources back into their
communities by supporting orphans, thereby empowering YOU to help in a
multifaceted way. We will bring you updates and newsletters regarding
the orphans and how your purchase made a difference in their lives.

population is HIV positive.
Many of the women have been widowed or abandoned, are single mothers,
or grandmothers raising grandchildren that have been orphaned. Craft
sales help provide an income for these hard working women and their
families who would otherwise have little or none.
