One of my other Etsy Street Teams, "LEST" is having a month long promotion. It's called, "Beads For Food".Each participant has committed to donating a certain amount of food or money to their local food bank for each bead sale made during the month of November.
Our LEST blog, has a list of members who are involved and what they are each donating. And I have a photo of one of the current treasuries from Etsy, which shows beads by some of the members. (Recognize my turkey dinner in the upper left corner?- Thanks Vedasbeads for creating the treasury.)
I'm really proud to be a member of a group that thinks of others this way. I know times are tighter for a lot of us this year, and yet this type of action is typical for a lot of beadmakers. It's a sharing group of artisans who support and care about each other and those around them. Thanks everyone...for being who you are.
And if you'd like a bunch of eye candy, stop by LEST's Flickr pages for glass that will make you drool. Members are always adding more photos.
Marcy, I am also so proud of the LEST team for doing this challenge. I am one of the many donating one can of food per sale. However, since I am only at five cans right now, I pledge to double that amount. My Etsy id is maggieet.
