Bedol’s innovative water clock takes the concept of clean energy to a whole new level! The clock are run by metal plates that take their current from ions in the water, which powers the energy for the clock to run.  It’s crazy how simple the concept is!

Being powered by nothing but tap water, these clocks save valuable energy and reduce pollution. A built in memory chip also ensures you never need to reset the time while changing the water. With no electricity or batteries needed, Bedol is reducing your carbon footprint and keeping waste from filling the landfill.

We all have our fond memories of Halloween as a child – the princess costumes, parades around the school parking lot, trading candies with friends, and not a calorie-counting care in the world.

Now that you’re an adult, it might take more than a sac full of Sweet Tarts and Reeses to dress up like Pippi Longstockings.

That’s where Coco-Zen comes in. Founded on the principles of responsible purchasing and fair trade, Coco-Zen uses all organic ingredients that will leave your sweet tooth (and heart) satisfied.  They use various methods of conservation from trying to ship in recycled and compostable packaging to using renewable energy sources at their business.  The company believes in Oneness with the planet and its people and a fair and more sustainable way of doing business.

Coco-Zen is also participating in Reverse Trick-or-Treating, a program established to highlight the plight of cocoa farmers and use of child labor in the industry.Trick-or-Treaters will be handing Fair Trade chocolate back to adults, with informational cards attached, to explain the problems of the cocoa industry and how Fair Trade presents a solution.  By providing children with a way to be active, tens of thousands of households in the US are getting the message that child labor and force labor will not be tolerated by our kids.

Support socially and environmentally conscious businesses this Halloween by buying organic, Fair Trade goodies for your neighborhood trick-or-treaters!

Also, Coco-Zen and Roozt are teaming up for a Halloween giveaway!

More often than not we make donations to organizations without knowing where our money goes or who the money supports.  We feel distant from the cause and eventually downsize our contributions because we can’t see the change.  We all want to witness our hard earned dollars make an impact on another’s life.

Well today, meet Musu. Musu is about 6 years old and was found selling nuts in the slum area where we work in Monrovia, Liberia. The founder of More than Me, Katie, smiled at Musu, who was sitting in the dirt with her peanuts for sale on her side. She started following Katie with her broken flip flops slapping against the pavement. Katie walked by a vendor selling flip flops and offered to buy Musu a new pair. She was quiet when receiving them but Katie said she could tell Musu was happy with her new flipflops. Katie had to leave but put a few dollars in Musu’s peanut money bucket as well as a slip of paper with Macintosh, our Liberian program volunteers’ phone number and asked if Musu’s mom could call him. Musu’s mom called Macintosh and he went to meet up with both Musu and her mother. Musu’s mother has an eye disorder and has difficulty seeing and she has several children, none of whom are in school. Musu is one of the breadwinners for her family. Musu will now be enrolled in school next year for her first time because No One Without!

Here is the amazing part: You can help fund Musu and countless of children’s continued education by shopping at No One Without! More Than Me is just one of five amazing non-profits that N.O.W. works with in their ‘For Purpose’ business model. When you checkout with all your new tees and hoodies, you’ll have a chance to select one of the following organizations to contribute 20% of your purchase to:

More Than Me Foundation, Inc.: An organization working in developing countries to reduce poverty through the power of education.  More Than Me believes that “it is education that will provide the next generation with the tools to fight poverty and conquer disease. School also offers children a safe environment, filled with support, supervision and socialization.”

Thirst Relief International: An organization working to save lives through granting access to safe drinking water. Their goal is “to overcome death and disease resulting from the consumption of contaminated water by providing safe, clean drinking water to those in need around the world.”

Giving Children Hope: An organization supporting the roughly 22,000 homeless children in Orange County, California “by continuously providing a stable and nutritious source of food to carry home during the weekends along with providing them with nutritional education.”

These Numbers Have Faces: A non-profit working to provide college scholarships for ambitious township youth in Capetown who wouldn’t otherwise have the opportunity for higher education. In return for their college scholarship, TNHF scholars participate in the TNHF Community Impact Model in which they engage in community service, mentoring, tutoring, leadership & financial literacy training.

The Chisomo Idea: An African-born global grassroots movement connecting the privileged young (and young at heart) to issues of poverty in Africa and providing them with a framework for action.
