~ Elegance from nature, Beauty through kindness ~
By now you are probably pretty familiar with The Lesser Bear mission statement (above), and know that I take it very seriously.
Not only am I dedicated to only using natural dyes and high quality fabrics, but I am also dedicated to using a portion of the profits from sales to help make a difference in the world.
Unfortunately, there has been so much need since my last update, with natural disaster relief among the largest. Here is what The Lesser Bear has contributed to since May:
The Anne Frank Center for Mutual Respect
The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU)
The Southern Poverty Law Center
The One America Appeal (aid to Texas, Florida, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands)
The American Red Cross (Disaster Relief)
Franklinton Preparatory Academy
Walipini Charities
None of these donations would be possible without your generous support. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for making this possible.
