Giving Initiative: Just One Africa

9/21/2017

0 Comments

 
One of the best parts of completing a Giving Initiative is seeing the impact it makes. The support from a Giving Initiative leaves a positive influence on the organization as well as the people or cause the organization serves. Recently, we received these kind words from our friend Amy Churchill at Just One Africa. 
We are incredibly grateful for your support and are so grateful for your partnership in supporting the important work we are doing around sustainability for Hope Beyond Transitional Center! The cow will be a blessing so many ways and with the milk it will provide it is a blessing that will keep on giving! That really is beautiful!

See Beautiful has created a world changing platform for others to learn about amazing work being done around the world and support it through beautiful products. They have thoughtfully connected the dots on how your dollar can create change for others and how your purchase can empower and equip all at the same time. Allowing you to reflect on ways everyone can get involved in meaningful projects with the click of your mouse.

See Beautiful has opened the door for Just One Africa to gain much needed support for a vital sustainability project for Hope Beyond Transitional Center in southern Kenya. Their support has supported our Dairy Cow Project which will give nutritious milk to some precious children. Not only milk to drink, but from the sale of the extra milk, it will help cover the staff costs to provide trauma therapy and counseling for some beautiful young hearts. Partnering with local leaders to learn what is needed not just for today, but for tomorrow and years to come. Truly being able to SEE BEAUTIFUL in the steps forward that local leaders are making for the good of their own community, that is something worth investing in!

See Beautiful has been an incredible support in so many ways, from emails checking in to see how we are, to providing us content for our social media posts, to keeping us updated on the progress. We truly felt like we all were a team and they were cheering and working with us just as hard as if this was their own project for people they knew and loved. Expanding the reach of what we were able to do and inviting others into our story with theirs, created something oh so beautiful!

I hope that the things I shared above are what you are looking for to share and truly came from the bottom of our hearts! We are excited to see this project totally funded and your investment got us that much closer to seeing it become a reality! Thank you for believing in us and the work that we do, we look forward to updating you in the next few months on how this project rolled out in Kenya and how much beautiful it is creating!

Autism Breakthrough of Knoxville

9/1/2017

When we came up with the idea to donate See Beautiful Milestone grants we had no idea the magnitude of beautiful encompassed in the applications we received. What felt like a wish & a prayer that we could create more beautiful in the world revealed a very real, tangible need that could impact thousands upon thousands as we selected each of the organizations to support.

Autism Breakthrough of Knoxville was one of the See Beautiful Milestone Grant awardees and their work is beautiful. They provide "residential services, in-home supports, personal assistance, day services, a Saturday therapeutic recreation program; community based activities focusing on lifelong education, job skill development and community integration; and also host a social group for adults with Asperger’s Syndrome." Breakthrough also serves as a community for adults with autism and their families. One of the cornerstones of Breakthrough is a residential neighborhood where adults can live together in community, with social activities and staff nearby as well. 
​

Through our grant, they will be able to enhance training of paid staff to increase knowledge of autism/sensory/language issues and behavior. This training will allow the staff to better empower the adults they serve. We have a feeling this is going to leave so many seeing, feeling and creating more beautiful and we are honored to support your work.
