We are trying to raise money for the American Cancer Society, and help to find a cure. Our community is full of people diagnosed with cancer, so by supporting them, we put a smile on their face. All the money is donated to the Cancer Society, and our charity is non-profit. We're hoping this will support cancer research, and that there is a cure found in the near future.

My communications class was given the task of doing 5 projects that would help others rather than ourselves. My partner and I came up with the idea of doing a documentary on recycled fashions. We plan to compare and contrast clothes that are home-made rather than mass produced, and hopefully make people more aware of problems like sweat shops and just how much they actually waste among other things.
Although we are looking forward and encorage everyone to do something like this, sometimes it's hard to find people who are willing to participate.

i am doing a school project in Polaris High School's fiber arts class having to do with service. my goal for this project is to get my community of fort collins, colorado and perhaps beyond to buy eco-friendly canvas and other cloth hand bags with catchy earthy phrases to grab the attention of shoppers. along with the bag would be a little pamphlet made of recycled paper giving facts about global warming and recycling to get minds thinking. i dont have the money to by fabric, but it is something i have a great passion for.

This charity will benefit teen homelessness. As a former teen who was homeless, there are not enough intiatives to help them. A lot of times, as teens, we are self-conscious of our clothing, especially when we are homeless, and lose a lot of clothing as we move from place to place. I want to do a fashion show that will showcase clothing made by original designers, and will feature the message that clothing can be cheap, affordable, and accessible to homeless teens.

'Create a Retail Store' is a marketing campaign that I created. I am planning on majoring in fashion marketing and merchandising (business) when I start college so this project is relevant. Retail stores, and many other types of businesses boost the American economy and serve entertainment for many Americans on a regular basis. Many people feel that retail stores are for 'stuck up' people to buy overpriced clothing and accessories, but that is not a fact.

On November 21-23, 2008, Team GOPINK! and thousands of other San Diegans will join the fight against Breast Cancer by walking in the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer 3-day, a sixty mile walk, to benefit Breast Cancer Research and Education. Team GOPINK! is a group of women made up my mother, 10+ women, and myself. Each walker has a minimum fundraising goal of $2,200.00 that they must fulfill. Team GOPINK!’s fundraising goal is $30,000.
In order to benefit both breast cancer research and to involve the community, Team GOPINK!

Hello,
My name is Andrea. In May of 2004, I started a Live Journal community in the likeness of the popular CW television show, America's Next Top Model. In the beginning, this was merely for leisure and fun. I did not expect for the community to take off the way that it did.
The community, which has just completed it's 11th cycle/season, has become a way for people from all over the world that may not normally have the opportunity to model in the fashion industry (or even for the show), a chance to be a model. There are no limitations as to who can partcipate.

While on a trip to Argentina last year, Blake had a vision to put shoes on children's feet around the world. To date, TOMS Shoes has given away 10,000 pairs to children in Argentina and is preparing to give 50,000 pairs in South Africa.
Style Your Sole is a great time for you and your friends to get together, express yourself through your own designs and support a good cause. Whether it is the theme of your party or a community building activity (youth group, sorority, birthday party), you and your friends are putting shoes on children’s feet somewhere around the world.

A gathering of music, art, fashion, and anything artistic to raise money. The money was for children in Uganda who are experiencing hard time. These children are going through hunger and being abducted to fight in a war that does not concern them.
The event was held in my high school after school hours. When invited fellow students who participate in the SCPA to perform. Students involved in dance, guitar, band, and any musical program took their bands and performed. Girls from dance created their own routine and performed.

The name of my company is Slate Theory. It is a teeshirt and hoody fashion line that uses artistic expression, the power and impact of fashion, and the buying power that consumer's hold to create a brand built upon the principle of ubuntu "I am because we are".
A hip-hop creative funky urban street chic vibe with a social mission as the foundation of the entire venture. The corporate social responsibility aspect is not merely an attatched word to boost sales, but it is truly devised based on giving back locally and globally.
