I have a giveaway for you today that is very close to my heart.
My brother-in-law, Greg, has always been like a brother to me. I started dating Matt when Greg was 12 and I have watched him grow up. He's now a sophomore in college and such a well-rounded and smart student studying Economics at Duke.
Last year Greg spent most of his summer in Guatemala teaching Guatemalans the skills needed to build businesses and create entrepreneurships. Here is a little more about the initiative, taken from their website:
We [a group of Duke students] traversed the country helping women entrepreneurs and consulting for various small businesses and organizations. One weaving cooperative, Lema, stood out above the rest in terms of the quality of its goods and its dream for expansion. This group of women, above all others, helped inspire us to continue development and consulting work when we returned to school.
How amazing is that? These students (including my brother in law) dedicate their free time to help the women of Guatemala live their dream of growing their business.
Today's giveaway includes not one, but TWO gifts from this special initiative.
The grand prize winner can choose a handbag/tote of your choice from Lema Initiative. Here are some of my favorites:
The second giveaway winner can choose a scarf or cosmetic bag.
So many of my readers have supported me in my quest to live my dream and grow my business - I ask you to please support this worthy cause by assisting women doing the same in much less fortunate circumstances.
Even if you don't win, my brother-in-law and his Duke classmates have given my readers:

This contest will close Wednesday night at 11:59 am Pacific time. I will draw a winner on Thursday.
Thanks for reading and entering!

ReplyDeleteBeautiful Initiative and Beautiful products!!

I love the moxi bag in sunset. It's a perfect everyday tote.
ReplyDeleteThis is an amazing project. Greg's devotion to such a meaningful endeavour only shows how beautiful his soul must be. Thank you, greg. And thank you for telling us about this project!
ReplyDeleteAs for me, I love the beach handbag in Winter and nd the tote handbag in Azure blue.
Actually, I really love these bags. They have a really organic feel to them, unlike bags with bright, brazen prints.

A giveaway with a cause... that's awesome! Who couldn't use another tote? It would be the perfect bag for toting sunscreen, hat, and a book to the beach for a day.
ReplyDeletegorgeous pieces for such a great cause! just checked out the site, very cool!
ReplyDeleteI love both of the totebags! What a great giveaway for many reasons. :)
ReplyDeleteI like them all! I'm really into scarves right now and I've been looking for a new cosmetics bag. Cool giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI really like the tote handbags and the scarves. I'd use the tote handbag for long car rides and when I have a lot of stuff to carry. I'd wear the scarf all year long!
ReplyDeleteThanks for this great giveaway!
What a wonderful cause! I'd absolutey love one of those tote bags. I commute an hour to work each day and it would certainly be handy to haul all my junk :)
ReplyDeleteI love that scarf! I would love to use it when meeting new clients and having a way to tell them about organizations like the one your brother-in-law supports. That's such a great cause!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love the striped bag or the scarf. How would I use this prize? Well, for now I would use it to tote some items for my new baby boy and some reading for myself. I am also attempting to start my own business as an English tutor since I'll be staying home with my baby. The scarf would be a beautiful reminder to stick with my goals and inspire progress for the goals of others.
ReplyDeleteThanks for such a meaningful giveaway. I have enjoyed watching you grow this blog and your business over the past year!
those totes are lovely - who couldn't use another!

ReplyDeleteI love the bags. I would definitley use it as a summer purse/diaper bag. the scarf is beautiful too!
ReplyDeleteI love the tote bag in the gray stripes! What a great cause.
ReplyDeleteThese products are beautiful! I would use the second tote as a beach bag or just a summer carry-all. That scarf though is absolutely gorgeous and I'd wear that year round!
ReplyDeleteI love the light blue and cream striped bag. It would make a great pool bag for the summer!
ReplyDeleteWow, these are beautiful! The larger bag would be a great summer purse. I love the tote and beach handbags. The scarf colors are beautiful. I might get one for my sister's birthday.

ReplyDeleteI love the summer colors of a beach handbag! :D And all the scarves :D
ReplyDeleteTote in cool grey...hands down! I love the cincher detail with the knit ball & very cool stripes with natural dye. I'd probably use it stuff all my Mommy and baby things together for an easy weekend tote- althought it'd make for a great market tote too =)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that scarf! Such a beautiful color! And it definitely looks like its light enough to wear all summer. The totes are all really great too!
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful group and a great product! I may have to buy the winter beach bag if I don't win. :) It would be perfect for taking to the beach or lake or just to the park for a picnic!
ReplyDeleteI love the Moxie handbag in Sunset and the orchid scarf the most!
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet giveaway Bryn, and your BIL sounds like such a great guy! I would use the beautiful blue striped bag to tote groceries home. We walk to the store everyday in an effort to be green, but I always seem to forget the clothe bags... but who could forget that beautiful bag!

Holly
Wow! They are all so beautiful!! I would love any of the bags but I could totally rock that scarf too!! I will definitely have to check out their site.

ReplyDeleteKelly
What a fantastic cause...and I love the bags! It's hard to pick just one, but I really like the tote handbag in the azure blue.
ReplyDeletewhat a great giveaway! i love all of their products, but i could really see myself using the totes all summer, from the pool to a concert downtown!
ReplyDeleteI love the moxie handbag! Everything they have is so cool- and neat that it helps ladies in need!
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great cause and these items are beautiful, inexpensive and would make wonderful gifts! The link in your post would not work, so I googled it and this link does work:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.lemainitiative.com/Lema_Initiative/Welcome_bryn_alexandra_readers.html
Can I say all of them? They're gorgeous! Whichever one I'd get I'd use as a diaper bag as that's literally all I carry around any more. A 3 year old and a 3 month old mean craziness, and the need for diapers and changes of clothes.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the blue and white striped bag! It would make a perfect beach tote, or a great weekend bag! The scarf is beautiful too - so versatile!
ReplyDeletethis is such a great giveaway! I love the Tote Handbag in Cool Grey, and would use it as a daily purse! so gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteLove the bags and the scarf - I could definitely see these at the beach, or walking around the city on a warm summer day.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful giveaway and such a great cause! I'll spread the word...in love w/ the Moxie and can't decide b/w sunset or nightfall--they're both great!
ReplyDeletewhat a great thing your brother in law is doing...and the bags and other items are beautiful!
ReplyDeletei love the third bag down...the one with the blue and camel stripes. i would use this as my "mommy purse" all summer long. sunscreen, extra sunglasses, snacks, and of course, my iPhone, wallet, keys and some fabric samples would all fit nicely.
(btw, the link on this post was not working when i tried it out...)
I love the tote handbags, especially in the azure blue. I would use this bag this spring/summer/forever to carry my items for the day in, maybe taking a book and a sheet to the park and having a little reading session. I love the concept for this program, what a great read to start the week off with!
ReplyDeleteLove this giveaway! I would choose the tote to take my little boy to the beach this summer.
ReplyDeleteI would probably pick one of the tote bags. I have a weakness for tote bags because you can use them for everything!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great mission behind this company! If I were to win either of the prizes, I would choose the Moxie handbag in in Nightfall or the scarf in Waterfall.
ReplyDeletewhat beautiful bags! i would love to win that light blue stripy one...you have such a beautiful blog, its one my daily joys to get to read it :)
ReplyDeleteI love this post. I live in Guatemala and have actually been to San Juan La Laguna and watched the women from Lema weave these beautiful products. I think it's great that you are using your reach to make a difference in a group of people who are really trying to improve their lives. The people of San Juan really have joined together as a community and believe in helping each other, which is not something that is common here. I hope that one day you can also visit them and this amazing country.
ReplyDeleteThat is simply amazing! They have done some awesome work! Particularly the Sahara sand sling handbag and the scarves! Delightful!
ReplyDeletelove the bags -- can one ever have too many of those?? a cosmetic case would also be lovely as my makeup currently lives in a Ziploc bag (which frankly, works just fine :) )
ReplyDeletegreat cause!
Beautiful items! I love the tote handbag! It'd be perfect for the summer and picnics at a park. Or even an upcoming trip to Hawaii!
ReplyDeleteI love NGO's like this. There is one in Cambodia which helps children stay off the street and go to school by painting. (Cambodia's Children Painting Project). We bought 4 paintings from them while we were there and the kids were so sweet.
These are BEAUTIFUL! I would choose the summer beach handbag, even though it was a tough choice! It looks like the perfect bag for going to the lake and storing my book, snacks, sunscreen and water.
ReplyDeleteI would choose the orchid scarf. I think the color is gorgeous and perfect for spring and summer. I would wear a pair of jeans shorts, a white v-neck t-shirt and flip flops with it.
Your brother-in-law and this group are amazing. To help so many people unconditionally is so admirable
I love the cosmetic bag. It would be the perfect place put those loose items that always sift to the bottom of my purse or to just carry by itself if I don't want to lug a purse or bag around. They are very cute!
ReplyDeleteYour link is not working! I love this giveaway, I would use the tote as a work bag and the scarves are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteSuch a wonderful cause!
ReplyDeleteI love the first tote you posted and that beautiful scarf!
What a great cause! And such beautiful work! If I had to pick one to win, it'd probably be the "Moxie Handbag" in Sunset. I'd use it for everything! Big totes are so versatile!
ReplyDeleteI think the cosmetic bag is adorable, and of course, I love the blue and white striped tote! What a great cause.
ReplyDeleteI would use one of the handbags for a diaper bag!
ReplyDeleteHow could you pick just one? The colors are all so fabulous, but I have to say that I think I like the sling handbag the best. I'm a sucker for a bag that I can shove as much stuff as possible into, and this screams "stuff me!!"
ReplyDeleteI love that first handbag you posted, would be perfect for summer!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great cause! I love the beach handbag in summer. I'd use it to tote things around when we go on day trips.
