Did you know that five children die each day as a result of
child abuse or neglect? Origami Owl® and Childhelp® have joined forces to save
lives.
We recently announced our amazing partnership with
Childhelp, a national nonprofit that provides comprehensive treatment to abused
and neglected children. We hope this partnership inspires you to join us in
speaking up for those children that have no voice. If you’re not familiar with
the Childhelp Speak Up Be Safe Program O2 is helping to expand, or the two
special charms that will help raise funds, visit ~ HERE ~.
April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month. In 1999,
Childhelp designated the first Wednesday in April as National Day of Hope.
Alongside Childhelp, O2 will be honoring the children we’ve lost with a candle
lighting ceremony and moment of silence.
The burning candle represents the 5 children whose lives are
taken each day, and the light we hope to bring into the lives of children who
are still suffering. It’s also a meaningful opportunity to share our compassion
and show our commitment to making a difference in the lives of others.
So, on Wednesday, April 2, 2014, please join the Nest, and
together let’s be a Force for Good. Honor the victims of child abuse by
lighting a candle and observing a moment of silence with friends, family, or
your O2 team members. Then inspire others to help us save lives by sharing a
picture of your heartfelt moment on Facebook, Instagram or your favorite social
network with the hashtag #O2GivesHope.
Let’s remember how blessed our lives have been, and recognize
the power we have to help others.
