My Christmas Greeting

By Adam Valvasori - Values Man

I know, I know, I know! It's way to early to be talking about Christmas but we are retailers - it's our job!

As you know we're a really popular place for people to find Christmas gifts. From a bloke's perspective, it's just too easy...the sister, the mother, the mother-in-law and even the girlfriend/wife are all covered at The Body Shop. If you are totally confused ask one of our nice staff people for help! They're good at it!

But hey, did you know we also sell Christmas cards? Not any old Christmas cards...Amnesty International Christmas Cards!

Check the selection out this year! They are available in a pack of 10 for $12.95. 100% of the profits ($8.15 per pack) is donated to Amnesty. We don't believe in doing things by half. You won't find any measly "5-cents-per-product-donated-to-charity-X" schemes here... we call that cause related marketing not passionate fund-raising for a cause we believe in. Which is what we like to do.

The proof is in the pudd; since 1999 we've raised over $860,000 for Amnesty and so we feel we've really significantly contributed to the fight for human rights locally and globally.

This is something I'm incredibly proud of, as Amnesty only partner with companies with shared values and a record of humane business practices.

This year we aim to raise $61,940. So you can help defend human rights by buying your Christmas cards at our place!

If you'd like to help Amnesty further consider volunteering at one of their action centres or becoming a Human Rights Defender!
