i have talked about the international princess project before and their commitment to rescuing women out of the sex trade. this organization goes into india and buys women out of slavery and gives them a place to stay and teaches them to sew and make pajama pants to sell. well lately, this has been something that is increasingly on my heart and mind. i've been wanting a way to be involved with a ministry or organization to help empower women to a better life and renewed dignity. i happen to know the executive director for the international princess project and as of yesterday, i now carry punjammies in my store, amandromeda!!! i am so excited to be a place where local people can come and see the product in person and purchase the pjs, and hopefully learn more about the sex trade as a result. i hosted an event for IPP back in november, and had an amazing response. i hope to do more of that in the future. 100% of my sales will go back to IPP, i won't make anything off of it. that's not something i'm interested in. i just want to further the ministry and the message that forced prostitution is a horrible wrong and anything we can do to help, large or small, is a good thing :)

YOU GO GIRL.
this is such a worthy endeavor, i commend you!
That is amazing! You are one fantastic lady!! ( Also, your bag is pretty fantastic too!)
This is excellent!!! Anything that can be done to empower women is a wonderful cause to be involved in.
love the subtle striped on this dress:)
Way to go! I hope lots and lots of people buy punjammies!
Just looked at the sight you linked. They are super cute!! I think I know what I'm getting my friends for Christmas this year!
You are literally one of my favourite people... for a plethora of reasons. Punjammies, breast nuzzles, the right words you say, faith, freckles... a random list, yes but 100% true.
Not to be a weird random blog stalker, but I have been following you for a while a have yet to comment. Just wanted to say thanks for sharing your fashion life with the world, you always look so cute :)
I love the bag! And the hat! I've told myself so many times i need to get me a hat like that!
What a great organization to support. So nice of you to sell their items in your store. Directly helping those women financially and informing others of the issue!
YES, that is awesome!!!! :D
goodness you and I are alike in mind with this. I made an entry the other day that is similar. I love you. truly. May you continue to serve others through your love and faithfulness. That is great that you are going to put 100% into them!!!!!!! I am truly proud of you and glad for your heart against the evils of human trafficking!
