In 2008 Jonden by Linda Leal acquired the
licensing rights to One is Greater Than None, a
non-profit organization created by eight teens to
inspire individuals to believe that any
contribution, no matter how small, has significant
value. Even with limited resources each person can
find a way to "be part of the equation."
As its
first cause, One is Greater Than None is currently
sponsoring rescue missions to save children being
trafficked in the fishing villages of Ghana, Africa.
It costs the International Organization for
Migration (IOM)* approximately $4,300 to save one
child from inhumane and brutal conditions. This
provides 2 ½ years of shelter, food, warmth and an
education to the fortunate children who are saved.
Since August 2007, in addition to selling their handmade bracelets and necklaces, the girls of One
is
Greater Than None have been promoting their young
contemporary active wear line. It's available at top
department stores, boutiques, and at our online
retail site. Created under license with JONDEN
MANUFACTURING, a portion of all clothing sales will
be donated back to One is Greater than None to
support the organization's critical work!
