Hey Glowing Friends and Supporters!
As the founder of Manjeri Skincare, I want to take a moment to reflect on the purpose of this holiday season, a time that encourages gratitude and the spirit of giving. This year, I find myself especially mindful of the challenges faced by my homeland of Uganda, where a recent tragedy—the landslide at the Kiteezi landfill site in Kampala—has brought to light the urgent need for action and support.
The loss of at least 21 lives, including innocent children, weighs heavily on my heart. As families mourn their loved ones and communities struggle to recover, it is crucial that we come together to make a difference. The devastating impact of this disaster has reminded me of the fragility of life and the importance of compassion during times of crisis.
Embracing Gratitude
In the midst of these trying times, I encourage you to embrace gratitude. As we gather with our loved ones and reflect on our blessings, let us also remember those who are less fortunate. Many families in Uganda are facing unimaginable hardship, losing not only their homes but also the foundation of their lives. In this season of giving, we have an opportunity to support them in their time of need.
I am profoundly grateful for the community we have built at Manjeri Skincare, which is founded on principles of holistic well-being and social responsibility. Your support has allowed us to promote sustainable practices and advocate for a healthier environment. As we approach the holidays, I ask you to consider extending that generosity to those in Uganda who are facing dire circumstances.
The Spirit of Giving
This holiday season, we are committed to the spirit of giving. Our wish for Christmas is to remove 1000 pounds of plastic from our environment through our partnership with CleanHub, which aligns with our mission to foster sustainable practices. However, our focus extends beyond our goals at Manjeri Skincare; we are also dedicated to aiding those affected by the recent landslide.
Immediate food and shelter are needed to assist families who have lost their homes and loved ones as they begin to rebuild their lives. With your help, we can contribute to the recovery efforts and support these families during this challenging time.
How You Can Make a Difference
I invite you to join us in this vital cause. Here are ways you can contribute to the spirit of giving this season:
