Noonday Blog Train!!

I am so honored to be a part of this Blog Train. Since the launch of our Fall Collection on August 28th there has been one Ambassador blogging about Noonday Collection and doing a GIVEAWAY E.V.E.R.Y.D.A.Y. It's pretty exciting. Yesterday, Lilly Neubauer started a giveaway for the Sophie Bracelet. This bracelet is near and dear to my heart because it is made in Haiti! It's AMAZING!! You are gonna LOVE it!! Go enter!!

About 3 years ago a dear friend of mine had a Noonday Collection Trunk Show to help raise money for their adoption. At that time I had NEVER heard of Noonday Collection, but once I did I was HOOKED! I bought a couple of items for my sister-in-law one Christmas, but didn't really know a whole lot more about Noonday Collection until my friend Krista Box, invited me to a Trunk Show to raise money for their adoption from Uganda. Let me tell you....it is one thing to look at what is on the website (and you should!), but when you attend a Trunk Show, hear the story of Noonday Collection, and see the products it is a completely different experience. (Not to mention hanging out with a bunch of women, trying on jewelry, and drinking wine is pretty phenomenal too). I had so much fun, and it was at this point that I understood the heart behind Noonday Collection. It's about caring for the poor and oppressed.

If you know me you know that I have a huge heart for adoption. Paul and I are in the process of adopting from Haiti, and are excited about expanding our family this way. However, I can't help but feel sad that I am getting a child because someone else can't raise this child. My whole life I knew there were children who didn't have parents or couldn't live with their parents, but I never realized that some children in the world can't live with their parents because their parents can't afford to raise them. These children are abandoned because their parents want a better life for them.

Noonday Collection not only helps place children in Forever Families by donating a portion of Adoption Trunk Shows to the adoptive families, but more importantly they are helping to keep families together by providing artisans with jobs so they don't have to give their children away. They can afford to raise their children, feed their children, and send their children to school. Lives are being changed.

I'm excited about this new adventure in my life. I get to help people by selling AMAZING jewelry! I also get to help my friends bring their babies home! 

I can't express enough that when you purchase through Noonday Collection you are changing lives. You are allowing women to take care of themselves, you are helping families get health care, artisans and their children are getting an education. Things I certainly took for granted until I learned about Noonday Collection. Please consider how you can partner with me to change the lives of artisans around the world. Go to my website: CynthiaCoppinger.NoondayCollection.com or email me to set up a Trunk Show at CynthiaC(dot)Noonday@gmail(dot)com.

Let's change some lives together!!
