F-to-F’s founder (Pam Koner) has joined the blogosphere! Aptly named “Pam-demonium,” the blog chronicles Pam’s thoughts and hectic life running an out-of-the-box hunger and poverty relief organization. Pam-demonium touches on everything from being a mindful human being when you’re doing your shopping… to recycling unwanted clothes to help a good cause (Family-to-Family!)… to why it’s important to teach your kids early and often about poverty…. to F-to-F’s office mascot Wally, a pug who wears a diaper!
Thanks to your generous donations, we’ve purchased and sent new shoes, underwear, fleece blankets and sweatshirts to migrant children and their families in Texas. Working through the Together with bloggers from the beauty blog Pretty Connected, we’ve just held our first Share Your Beauty product drive giving event! Pretty Connected brought together professionals from the beauty industry to donate products and fill 100 tote bags with soaps, makeup, nail polish, hair products and more. The bags, along with 22 other boxes of donated products, were delivered to the Henry Street Settlement in New York City to be given to women in homeless and domestic violence shelters as gifts on Mother’s Day. Our goal is to bring a little beauty and dignity back into the lives of women who are struggling to overcome extreme poverty. Read more.
