Make a Difference
SinlessTouch helps you to make a difference while shopping with us. During checkout, you have the option to round up your purchases and donate electronic "spare change" to a charitable cause. One of the reasons that people don't donate is because they don't have enough time, so we have tired to make it easy for you. During your checkout you decide how much to round up your total, and the donation is included in your payment.
With your generous donations, we have committed to Adopting children
worldwide. We will maintain a profile of each child and their life for
all to follow and see how we are all making a difference.
Why?
Our commitment to society is nothing new. We've always known that, as
well as providing the right products, a sustainable business needs the
support of healthy communities and a high quality environment. We aim
to be the most trusted retailer wherever we trade by demonstrating a
clear sense of social responsibility and consistency in our decision
making and behavior. Having the good fortune of being raised with all
the opportunities to escape poverty and illiteracy, the founders of
SinlessTouch credit their success to the strong examples set by their
parents' ambitions and sacrifices. Thus, Early Childhood Education in
Developing Nations is a cause they have embraced through SinlessTouch.
Too many of the world's children suffer the debilitating effects of poverty and violence.
Children have the right to experience life with as much joy and
hope as possible. Our support creates an environment of hope and
respect for children in need in which they have opportunities to
achieve their full potential. In addition it provides children,
families and communities with practical tools for positive change.
Without focused attention, millions of children will remain trapped and
forgotten in childhoods of neglect and abuse, with devastating
consequences for their long-term well-being and the development of
nations.
Within the context of alleviating child poverty, vulnerability and
deprivation, our support creates programs in a variety of different
areas that provide practical assistance to impoverished communities and
plant the seeds of self-sufficiency. The integrated development is
made up of interventions in three primary sectors:
- Early Childhood Development
- Health, Nutrition and Sanitation
- Education
1. Less than one per cent of what the world spent every year on
weapons was needed to put every child into school and yet it didn't
happen.
2. The lives of 1.7 million children will be needlessly lost this
year because world governments have failed to reduce poverty levels
3. According to UNICEF, 30,000 children die each day due to
poverty. And they "die quietly in some of the poorest villages on
earth, far removed from the scrutiny and the conscience of the world.
Being meek and weak in life makes these dying multitudes even more
invisible in death." That is about 210,000 children each week, or just
under 11 million children under five years of age, each year.
The benefits are undeniable, educated and empowered children contribute
positively to every aspect of society...creating a standard for the
future.
