Following our first solidarity private sales, we decided to organize a new collection!
September means back-to-school season and school-supply shopping, so it was only natural for us to come up with the idea of organizing a school-supply collection, since everyone has supplies at home without always knowing whether they will be used.
The choice of association was just as obvious: Mathilde, our marketing manager, has been sponsoring a young Vietnamese girl for several years to enable her to attend school, through the Pousse-Pousse association, which is always looking for school supplies to redistribute to children.
Since the association 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 futures, eat three meals a day, and receive essential healthcare. Sponsorship also involves exchanging letters, translated by the association, 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 supplies were donated to the association and are waiting to be sent to Vietnam once the health situation allows it.
We are so deeply touched by your messages, donations, loyalty, and support, which enable us to launch such wonderful initiatives!
