If GOOD karma is created through every choice you make. And you already know that every choice you make has some impact on the world. Then wouldn't you choose to feel amazing through every purchase on many more levels than one?

E.g. Scenario 1

You buy a fashionable new top.

1. You feel good because it is new

2. You feel good because you look good in it.

3. You have NO idea where it was manufactured or the working conditions of the people who manufactured it. Are they happy?

4. You have NO idea of the materials it is made from. Are they synthetics or plastics, are they good for your health to be wearing ALL day? Have the dyes used polluted precious environments where it is manufactured?

VERSUS

Scenario 2

You buy a fashionable new top from a company you know cares about the environment and the health/happiness of its workers

1. You feel good because it is new and you look good in it

2. You feel good because you know your purchase has helped someone live a better life

3. You feel good because you are educated about your purchase and have made an empowered choice

4. You look even MORE AMAZING because you have the bonus feel good factors of being educated, positively contributing to society and being healthy because the materials are all natural or organic, and the positive energy in making the garment is passed onto its wearer.

GoodieDo can even ADD one more additional FEEL GOOD factor!!!

5. Buy your garment through a GoodieDo fundraiser and 30% of your purchase price will go towards their DO GOOD cause. Which might be: Running a marathon for cancer, funding micro loans for developing nations women to build business, school programs anything GOOD.

Have you ever dreamed of doing something to make the world a better place? Not just giving money to a charity or volunteering for a few hours, but really making it a big part of how you spend your time and energy? Cate Bolt not only dreams of making the world a better place, she does it every day on her own steam.  

In June of 2010, Cate started Foundation 18, Indonesia, an orphanage in Northern Bali, which homes children without a living parent or children whose parents have relinquished their children. The orphanage follows the group home model, where the children are raised in a family environment which means they have bedrooms instead of dormitories, eat meals as a family and the staff  play a parental role to the children.  The project quickly expanded to being more than "just an orphanage," but a child-friendly center for all children where they can access education, food and healthcare. 

In response to a need on a recent visit to the center, Cate dreams of establishing a fairtrade clothing and accessories manufacturing center to employ mothers in the area, stimulate the local economy and use profits to sustain the orphanage and other humanitarian projects in the community.  

YOU CAN HELP CATE AND THE MOTHERS AND CHILDREN IN THIS COMMUNITY TO FULFILL THEIR DREAM!!  She has registered her dream on the Sunsuper Dreams website.  Every month the dream with the most votes gets AU$5,000 to help them make their dream a reality.  

We are asking you to VOTE HERE for Cate's dream.  It will only take a few minutes and you can consider it your deed today to help make the world a better place!  

We also want to sincerely THANK Cate for all of her efforts in helping some of the world's most vulnerable people.  The world needs more people like you, Cate.

I love meeting inspirational people with a real life story to tell. Last week I met with Daniel Zeicht,  he told me about his involvement in raising $200,000 with a passionate group of people from Cronulla to build a Youth Development Centre for the town of Pecatu, Bali in the wake of the 2002 Bali bombings. Not only did this group raise the funds to invest in the long term future of this surfing town but they also personally helped to pick the plot of land and lend their specialized building skills to plan and project manage the build over many months on site in Bali. In collaboration with Opportunity International, Mission Australia and Christian Surfers Australia this group of 10 motivated people set up a surfing competition on Wanda beach called the 'Good Neighbours Sufing competition' from this alone $80,000 was raised. Another $120,000 was raised through corporate sponsorship.  The Centre cost $200,000 to build and includes an indoor skate park, indoor basket ball courts, vocational training rooms for language and computer classes and is known to host many community events including skating contests. In Daniel's own words 'It looks like a 2 million dollar facility'. The ceremonial presentation of the $200,000 was presented to the town of Pecatu at another 'Good Neighbours' surf contest in Bali. The cheque was presented to the town on a surfboard.  The Centre was completed and handed over to the local people in 2005 and was called Elevate Bali. At least 100 local youth use the centre for study and recreation on a weekly basis. What a fabulous way to support a community by investing in the ongoing education, training and support of their youth.  When Dan told me about his involvement in this project I had goosebumps just hearing about this fabulous venture. Communities creating better communities for each other is an empowering feat. Great Job team! Here is a video of people traveling to Bali to help at Elevate.
