The $100 donation goes directly towards helping small entrepreneurs (many of them women) in Africa, Latin America and Asia take the first steps out of poverty and start their own small business.<BR/><BR/>Check out there website at http://www.trickleup.org/<BR/>You can order the necklace online and also read about the incredible work they are doing around the world!Katherinehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12946032946895347064noreply@blogger.com
