We are thrilled to announce that we met our goal!!! It took a bit of time but after diligently giving $5 from each shoot, we can say made our goal for the World Vision’s Girls in Crisis Fund. See our fundraising page.
Kimberlee and I love the idea of rallying our boudoir friends and all striving toward a BIG goal together. What if instead of us just starting another goal on our own, what if we all came together toward one BIG goal donating $5 per boudoir shoot toward helping other hopeful entrepreneurial women in Malawi, Africa? Together we could make a HUGE impact on the lives of women who want to do just what we do; provide for themselves and their family through their own business, their own vision and dream. When jobs are scarce it is the entrepreneurial spirit that can lift a community out of poverty. To learn even more please visit our blog post on Boudoir International where we really go into detail.
To learn more about micro finance you can visit Opportunity International or visit our blog post on Bou Int. In a nutshell, Micro-Finance is a hand UP not a hand OUT. Hopeful entrepreneurs are given small loans they would normally never be able to obtain because of their financial condition. They are required to pay back these loans with interest and the wonderful cycle continues with the money then given to another want-to-be business owner. Families are provided for, jobs are created, and the awful
cycle of poverty is dealt with in a real way.
If you want to join this fight please email us at [email protected] and we will add you to the list of our team on Bou Int!
Also, every time you give on the fundraiser site you will have the opportunity to say who you are, add a photo and say why you are doing this.
It may take us a while but we KNOW that this completely possible and will be a joy to work with all of you to make such an impact.
Blessings & xoxo- M&K
Oh PS…..and to motivate us to join together for this cause…. I just have to leave you with one of my personal fave childhood songs….

Congrat’s on reaching your goal- That’s amazing! What a great idea to combine forces.
I had to laugh as soon as I saw the title of this post- I knew who wrote this one! Nice to see the video again…but it’s just not the same without the lines and gaps from being rewound a million times over! 🙂
