Be a "Peace" of the Puzzle...

Puzzle Creations is giving back to the community!

Starting Spring/Summer 2008, I will be selling buttons (like the one below) to raise money for different non-profit organizations in Toronto. The "Piece Campaign" is about building a better community and knowing that we each play an important piece of the puzzle. Most of you know I currently work for a charity called "The Centre for Dreams," a day program for adults with developmental disabilities. After having worked here for almost 2 years, I have a better understanding of the challenges that NP organizations endure and it's difficult to just sit back and not doing anything.

2007 was a difficult year for a lot of people I know (including myself) and watching the news, for many others as well. As much as I'd like to save the world, I've realized that it begins by saving myself - and by that I mean finding "inner peace," being able to tear myself from the pressures of society and being someone I want to be. This campaign isn't just about helping others, but a way to help yourself.

I hope you will join me in this simple campaign and show your support by purchasing one and getting your friends involved too! They'll be $3.00 each.

We are in the midst of planning a mini fundraiser/kick-off in June with some live music, raffle prizes and a small art gallery. Details TBA! Just in case you wanted to know, proceeds will go to: METRAC, NEDIC, Arts for Children of Toronto, The Centre for Dreams and WPC. Yes, there's a lot, but you can donate specifically to any of the causes. The goal is raise $2500.00 with $500.00 going to each charity!
