Following our first charity private sales, we decided to organize another collection!
September means back-to-school season and school-supply shopping, so the idea of organizing a collection of school supplies naturally came to us—items that everyone has at home without always knowing whether they will be used.
The choice of organization was just as obvious: Mathilde, our marketing manager, has been sponsoring a young Vietnamese girl for several years to help her attend school, through the organization Pousse-Pousse, which is always looking for school supplies to redistribute to children.
Since the organization was founded in 2003, 382 children from the village of Tan Thoi, in southern Vietnam, have been sponsored, enabling them to attend school, build their future, eat three meals a day, and receive essential healthcare. Sponsorship also involves exchanging letters, translated by the organization, to provide the children with all the support they need.
On September 3, 4, and 5, so many of you responded to our appeal and brought us entire bags of school supplies! All the materials were donated to the organization and are waiting to be sent to Vietnam once the health situation allows.
We are so touched by your messages, donations, loyalty, and support, which enable us to launch such wonderful initiatives!
