The best part of our green business, Natural Clothing Company, are people we meet. Anne from San Francisco introduced us to the project building a new medical center at the base of the Himalayas between Nepal and India. When our family moved away from Seattle few years ago, our son was in a serious health condition. We measured prospective homes in terms of how long would it take us to get him to the Children’s Hospital in emergency. For kids in Jambange a trip to medical help might be impossible right now.
Here is what Anne says: “As a yoga instructor, and customer of the natural clothing company I support the Jambange Project. We are raising funds to build a medical center at the village, and we hope to see in the future the village becoming sustainable by itself. Donating a contribution to the Jambange Project will help all the people at the village to get medical care. You can contact OmGuru for donations. Check out the Jambange website! www.jambange.com . Thank You all!”
Another beautiful part of green movement is that Anne is French, I am Polish, you are who you are. The project is in Himalayas and there are no boundaries to compassion.
Welcome to my first post on Natural Clothing Blog! Wow, writing a blog is probably highest achievement of my technical skill… First things, first though – forgive me if my grammar is off. Being born on a different continent, I have an excuse, even though it is getting weaker and weaker the longer I live in USA (28 years coming soon). Spell checkers are great for spell but so so for Polish/English grammar…
Two – I have lots of ideas and thoughts which I would like to share with you but… most of all, I would love to know more about You!
What part of green movement makes sense to you? In your mind, if you have to go an extra mile (or extra dollar) to live organic, what would you say?
a)Organic clothing is a bit over board right now. With my budget being so low I don’t buy much period, I would rather not spend more on organic food, even less on clothing.
b) I have mixed feelings. I am a bit concerned, I hear about toxins used on a lot of crops but we don’t live close to any agricultural fields, I don’t see them sprayed. And after all, it washes off in a laundry, doesn’t it?
c) I am really concerned, I noticed my skin (or my spouse, kid) more and more sensitive to soaps and shampoos, maybe clothing should be free of chemicals, too. I definitely don’t want to eat sprayed fruit or veggies. I’ll buy organics even though I have to pay more.
If above options don’t fit, can you share any of your own thoughts on organic food or clothing?
