The Shine Project: Giveaway

15 Apr By

The other day, my dear friend Melissa from Sippy Cup Mom wrote an awesome post about The Shine Project.  When I read it, I feel in love with what Ashley, the creator of these necklaces is doing:

make a difference

http://ashlemieux.blogspot.com/p/shine-necklaces.html

Isn’t it just gorgeous?

Why did Ashley create these necklaces?

This is what The Shine Project is all about:
Going out of your comfort zone
to bring light to those who need hope.
The Shine Project emulates love, sacrifice, and
CHANGE.

That is what I like!  Being a part of something that is making a difference.  And how are these beautiful necklaces making a difference?

In January 2012, the money will be going to
the first ever Shine Project Scholarship award
for an inner city school students college education.

I love it!  I have a special place in my heart for inner city students.  Every week, our church runs a youth center where we bus in students to give them a safe place to hang out.  And it is the beating of my heart.

When I saw that Ashley was making these necklaces for the very purpose of providing a college education for these students, I had to buy one.  And then, well, I bought an extra one to giveaway to one of my readers!

Want to win a shine necklace?

Mandatory Entry: Leave me a comment below telling me what your passion is.

Extra Entries:

This giveaway is open to both US and Canadian residents and will end on 4/29.  The winner will be contacted by email and will have 48 hours to respond before another winner is chosen.

Lets all Shine together and make a difference!

Disclaimer: I bought a necklace for myself and one winner.  The Shine Project is donating a personalized charm to the necklace winner, if they chose they want one.  All opinions are 100% my own.
