We Can Make A Difference.. Sign The Petition!


There has been a lot of chaos going on since the MAC for Rodarte collection information was released. I don't want to make this long -you already know my thoughts concerning the situation. Today, I ran into a petition that is basically requesting that MAC and Rodarte donate all of the MAC for Rodarte profits to helping the women in Juarez. Mac has already stated that they will be making a donation of $100,000, which is quite generous, but with this petition, we are trying to urge MAC to donate all the proceeds.

With Viva Glam, MAC is so generous in donating every cent of each lipstick sold to people living with HIV/Aids so why not do the same for these women in Juarez? Let's gather together to get as many signatures as possible. It's super easy -all you need to do is sign your name and fill in your email.

Signing this petition is a great way to join the cause and help these women in Juarez. I know that not everyone has the extra cash to donate -this is an easy way to help if you cannot donate at this time. Not all of us are blessed with the extra cash -some of us have kids, some of us are in school, some of us are out of work, etc. And if you can contribute, anything from a dollar to $100 would make a big difference.

I've put a link up in the sidebar to take you directly to the petition page in case people decide to sign later on. To sign now, click here. That link will also inform you on all the details. Please spread the word -link the petition to your blog, email your friends and family, and so on. Together, we can make that difference!

Also, if you'd like to make a donation, check out Pretty in Dayton's list here.

P.S. If you're signature doesn't appear right away, don't be alarmed. Mine didn't either but later on in the day, I got a follow-up email and when I checked back, my name was there.

  6. Yea, I hope so too. If we can just get enough signatures, maybe they'll budge.
