Light Gives Heat not only loves when people sign up for Spread Campaign, but also gets super stoked when campaigners get creative in the way of selling the beautiful Suubi necklaces. Danielle Hartland is an example of one of our Spread Campaigners around the globe who has taken her own tactic to spreading hope.

Danielle is a graphic designer and photographer. On her website homepage, she highlights her campaign saying, "I bought some necklaces to sell because I want to help change the world. Those of you who know me know that I’m a creative person, and that’s why this project really spoke to my heart."

What is Spread Campaign, and how can you become a campaigner like Danielle?

Spread is an Opportunity for you to get involved with what Light Gives Heat is all about. Its about Spreading Hope! All necklaces are made and bought from women in Jinja, Uganda at a fair trade price. Each necklace is shipped to Colorado where volunteers box each necklace with a card telling you about a woman who made your necklace. Here is where you come in. You make the decision that you want to spread Hope and contribute to seeing that these women receive stable and consistent incomes. So, the next step is to sign up online. We send you a box of 10 classics, plus a free necklace as our gift of gratitude to you! Once you receive your box, you get as creative as you want to sell these necklaces! Tell your friends...your family....your co-workers. Tell them about the women in Jinja who have the opportunity to earn a fair and consistent income! You tell them that they deserve to have the same opportunities as we do here in America and that you sell their necklaces to show the world that Africa is creative and innovative and full of HOPE!

Go...Go tell the world!! Be that change you want to see!

After you have sold all your necklaces, return the money to LGH here in Colorado and you will be entered into a contest to possibly win a *trip over to Uganda to meet these beautiful women in Jinja, Uganda.
