Triple Help, Times Two: Two Single Mothers, Each With Triplets, Receive Grants

Seven years ago, Meirav Altmark, a Los Angeles resident, got wonderful news – she was pregnant with triplets. Life was wonderful and Meirav delivered three premature, but beautiful, babies.

The father left before they were born. The children were not well, and their care became Meirav's priority. Because of her time commitments at home, Meirav had to quit her job. Financial hardship followed.

Because of Meirav's dedication, all three children are now healthy. Meirav found time to look for work but one thing was holding her back – her lack of transportation.
It was a struggle to get the children to school. Tasks such as doctor appointments and grocery shopping were difficult. A way to get around would allow Meirav to work again.
In Hollywood, a similar story was playing out for Sabrina Phillips. Sabrina was pregnant with triplets. Because she was a "high-risk pregnancy," the doctor ordered her not to work. The babies' father left and Sabrina found herself a single parent to three newborns. With women's coats no one there to help, Sabrina had to stay home.

Sabrina moved to Sacramento where she and her babies struggled. They were healthy, but money was tight. She hadn't worked in four years.
"I didn't have money for childcare. It seemed like I couldn't get ahead," Sabrina said.

The situations were referred to Phillips Charitable Organization and both women received grants from Charles Phillips and PCO.

"The grant was a great blessing," Sabrina said. "It allowed me to focus on getting back into the work force. I eliminated debt, got my finances in order, and was able to pay for the children's dental care, food and clothes. This grant was a life saver."

In Meirav's case, Phillips Charitable Organization joined forces with Jewish Big Brothers Big Sisters of Los Angeles (JBBBSLA). Together, the organizations were able to provide a mini-van, insurance and gas for the family.

"These two strong women have the enormous responsibility of raising triplets alone. PCO is pleased that Meirav and Sabrina are now on a positive track to reach their family and career goals" said Young Hug, Board Member, PCO.

After two years of operation, Phillips Charitable Organization's grants have helped many families in financial crises. PCO specifically helps single parents, engineering students, and military veterans – three constituencies dear to Charles Phillips and the board members.

Two major operating principles of PCO are to (1) evaluate and decide on grants quickly, normally within 48 hours, to help people with urgent challenges and (2) expend 100% of foundation funds on helping people in need and nothing on administrative overhead which is funded by the board itself. PCO was founded by four lifelong friends including its president, Charles Phillips, CEO of Infor.

DownEast Basics Showcases Best New Fashion Trends In its Summer 2012 Collection

DownEast Basics, a high-style, low-price retailer that specializes in trendy fashions as well as modest clothing, is helping shoppers make the most of warm weather with its Summer 2012 collection that showcases some of the season's very best fashion trends. With new styles for women, teens and girls, women's jackets the DownEast brand delivers high-end looks at always-affordable prices.

"I had so much fun designing our Summer 2012 collection with styles that are exciting, fresh and very on-trend," said DownEast's head clothing designer Andrea Updike. "We're offering the boldest new colors and design details you see on runways and in high-end boutiques – but without the high prices that go along with them. This season, color your summer 'fun' with our sunny yellows, blues, corals, pretty pastels and playful, retro mix-and-match prints."

The DownEast "Basics" concept continues to be well-priced, wardrobe-building essentials combined with favorite new trends that can be easily layered and mixed for versatility and a put-together look. In summer, these looks can take you from the beach or other outdoor activities right into evening.

Updike talks about how to incorporate some of the summer's hottest fashion trends that are in DownEast Basics' Summer 2012 collection:

  •     Big Color: "Now is not the time to be intimidated by color! Face your color fears by pairing almost any bright shades together, including neon. And don't forget about the PANTONE? Color of the Year, Tangerine Tango. Find your key pieces for summer in this shade. I suggest DownEast's Lightly Layered Tee belted, tucked or worn straight with some colored denims. If you're still feeling color shy, try brights with neutrals."
  •     Stripes on Stripes: "Mix and match your stripes – any color, any direction works! Forget the idea that stripes are not flattering. Believe it or not, stripes can do just the opposite and flatter any figure when styled right. Keep body proportions in check by creating a narrow waistline. To get your stripe on, try our Long Love Maxi Skirt that can be worn as a skirt or dress, our Card Catalog Cardi, Word Up Top or West Indies Top."
  •     Tonal Time: "With the brilliant brights of the season, play with pairing different shades of the same color. Combining four shades of blue keeps your look unexpectedly cool. You can do this with our Tea Cup Top, Betty Cardi, Wonder Cami and Anchor Skirt."
  •     Pretty Pastels: "Everyone from Versace to Vuitton paired pastels in their spring and summer collections and you can, too! Check out our Lacey Afternoon Dress and Worlds Apart Blouse. Such a pretty silhouette for a pretty little price."
  •     Retro & Vintage Swimwear: Keep it classy this season with your swimwear. Mix the season's bright hues with trendy vintage silhouettes. Nothing captures that more than our vintage-inspired swim pieces like our Sausalito Halter and French Indies Bikini, our Retro Revival Suit and Silver Screen Suit."

This season, for the first time DownEast Swim's popular mix-and-match options and designs to complement every body type are joined by an adorable new swimwear collection for girls.

Ramadan 2012 Gift Guide is a One Stop Halal Shopping Site for Islamic Gifts

This year's edition of EidGiftGuide.com is now available just in time for Ramadan 2012. The problem of struggling to find Islamic gifts is solved thanks to the online guide available at http://www.EidGiftGuide.com. For the second consecutive year, Eid Gift Guide makes halal shopping easy for Muslims everywhere.

Find Islamic gifts made by and for Muslims that feature strict halal permissible products appropriate for the entire family at http://www.EidGiftGuide.com

Ramadan, the annual Islamic holy month of fasting, began last week. At the end of the month, is a three-day event called Eid, Arabic for festival or feast. The festival brings Muslim families together to enjoy each other's company and celebrate. Many Muslims give gifts or money to their loved ones during this time. However, finding halal, permissible gifts or Islamic items in stores and online has been a difficult task, especially for those living in non-Muslim countries.

Last year, Ponn Sabra, of American Muslim Mom, decided to fill this void with the Online Eid Gift Guide (http://www.EidGiftGuide.com) - an annual gift guide offering a one stop halal shopping website for Islamic gifts.

Advertisers featured in the guide have a thumbnail image of their product that links to the site where the item can be purchased. Sabra who is Muslim, personally approved each of the listings to assure they are halal permissible products. She reviews all images to be sure they are kid-friendly and so parents can know it's safe for their children to spend their 'adiya, Eid money to shop online.

"I wanted to showcase halal products that are not readily available at mainstream stores," says Sabra. She uses many of the products (like the Muslim doll "Little Ponn" that was named after her) with her own family. The site has already been successful in women's jackets online connecting Muslims and advertisers. Mohammed Aaser of NoorKids.com states, "Noor Kids partnered with EidGiftGuide.com last year, and we have chosen to renew for this year. EidGiftGuide.com has helped us improve our SEO search results and has also helped us increase sales during Ramadan! We strongly encourage the partnership!"

Featured in the guide are Islamic gifts for:

    Children - Toys, games, books, Islamic clothing, Turkish scarves and socks,
    Women - Islamic clothing, natural skincare products, Allah pendants
    Men - Islamic attire, portable bidet, digital Qur'an reading pen, iPhone app,
    The home - Eid decorations, art pieces, digital adhan clocks, and
    Friends and family overseas - Greeting cards, Eid candy wrappers, Islamic stationary.

With their shopping lists covered, Muslims will be free to focus their attention on worship during the holy month of Ramadan while being more than satisfied with the Islamic gifts they have purchased through the online Eid Gift Guide.

Note to Potential Advertisers
The online Eid Gift Guide is intended to offer economical advertising options to Muslim and Muslim-friendly entrepreneurs and small businesses during [Islamic] festivals. Advertisers are still being accepted through Eid al-Adha, the second festival in the Islamic year for Muslims (this year, it will fall in November). Ads will remain on the site year round, so the halal shopping need not be limited to just the times of Eid.

See http://eidgiftguide.com/listing-options for more info.

An iPod Nano Pocket Watch Crowdfunding on Kickstarter is Designed and Not Just Made in China

While the face-kini is the latest strange Chinese phenomenon, there are designs emerging from China that are not strange but instead, stylish. Two such designs, PodKit Watch? + ClipClok?, are iPod nano? watch accessories currently crowdfunding on Kickstarter.

An American-Taiwanese industrial designer, Simon Kwan, is amongst the coming wave of independent designers and smaller brands that want to change Western consumers' perceptions of Chinese design. With the success of Apple? MacBooks?, iPhones?, and iPods?, all made in China, the quality and perception of Chinese made products is already improving. Designed in China, however, is still a novel idea, with very few Chinese brands, such as Lenovo? and Haier?, and even fewer Chinese designers making inroads into Western markets. Kwan, and others like him, is seeking to change that.

Kwan's PodKit Watch? is a modern retro mix of a classic gentlemen's pocket watch and personal electronics accessory. Inspired by the success of LunaTik?, the first Kickstarter design project to raise almost $1 million in crowdfunding, Kwan decided to also use the site to launch his own take on the iPod?-as-watch product trend. His design, however, adds some new twists. Unlike the LunaTik?, PodKit Watch? isn't worn on the wrist. It comes with two chains allowing it to be either worn on clothing and bags or as a pendant.

Indeed, Kwan hopes his design will appeal better to women, who may not wish to wear a nano wristwatch, which is somewhat ironically bulky on the wrist. Kwan's design also doesn't require tools to install or remove the nano. As with classic pocket watches, this one has a spring loaded cover that protects the nano's touchscreen display. Opening the cover also simultaneously wakes up the nano's display from its power saving sleep mode. Nano wristwatch owners need to press the nano's power button using their other hand to do the same.

The ClipClok? is an analog watch, or timepiece module as its designer refers to it, that is shaped just like a nano. It's meant to be swapped in place of the nano when owners either can't wear the nano as a watch, like on rainy days or when their nanos need recharging, or when the next generation iPod nano? is introduced, most likely featuring a new shape and size.

Kwan launched his Kickstarter project at the beginning of August, and with a little over a week remaining, has not had as much success as he had hoped in reaching his funding goal. Does this signal that the world isn't ready for Designed in China? Kwan thinks not.

He instead women's jackets online believes his campaign's slow funding is due to his lack of PR and marketing savvy. Prior to launching his campaign, Kwan didn't even have a Twitter account. He has learned quickly and is now active on Twitter, Pinterest, and Google+. It remains to be seen, however, if his actions now are enough for PodKit Watch? + ClipClok? to succeed.

Regardless of the outcome, Kwan says this, his first attempt at crowdfunding, has been an incredible learning experience, "My backers, friends, and family have been so supportive. I've received enough honest compliments about my designs that I feel confident if I fail this first time out, I can re-structure, re-launch, and succeed in the future. I think there are great designs waiting to come from designers in China, and crowdfunding is a fantastic way to both fund them and validate consumer interest."

About Simon:
Simon Kwan is an American-Taiwanese product designer, originally from Quincy, Massachusetts, now based in Shanghai. Over his 15 year career as, first, a mechanical engineer, and now as an industrial designer, he has developed commercially successful products both technical; such as audio systems and go-karts, and beautiful; such as luxury travel amenities, fashion bags, and home décor products.
