So, What Else Can I Do to Help?

1.Tell your friends about the 5 C's of diamond buying:
CARAT * COLOR * CLARITY * CUT * CONFLICT-FREE

2. Educate yourself and everyone you know about the Kimberley Process, the international diamond regulatory system at http://www.dreamsofafrica.org/

3. Urge the diamond industry to use its vast resources to address some of the complex social factors, including poverty and lack of governance, that contribute to civil wars funded by diamonds in Africa.

4. Buy, wear and support the Dreams of Africa cause. We at WhiteFlash have created a designer range of custom jewelry created to help the victims of blood diamonds, also known as conflict diamonds. 100% of all profits go directly towards relief efforts. This line of jewelry worn by your heart will touch the hearts of all who share our Dreams of Africa.

2008 Teen Choice Awards features AWEAR products

One of the many perks to being a celeb is that you get free stuff! Over the weekend, I popped in at the Teen Choice “Mattel Celebrity Retreat,” where various companies, from Neutrogena to Southpole Clothing, were offering up their goods to stars making an appearance at the Teen Choice Awards, which airs tonight on Fox at 8 p.m. ET/7 p.m. CT.

While the celebs definitely enjoyed loading up on freebies (who wouldn’t?), they also took time out to do some good for charity. Chris Brown, LL Cool J, Drake Bell and David Cook, autographed the hood of a 2009 Volkswagen Jetta TDI, which is the company’s newest eco-friendly car. The Jetta will eventually be auctioned off with all the proceeds going to City of Hope, a leading research and treatment center for cancer, diabetes, and other life-threatening diseases.

Many stars (The Jonas Brothers, Jordin Sparks, David Archuleta, and Brenda Song to name a few) also signed new TI-NSpire graphing calculators, which will be donated to City of Hope to provide inspiration to children in hospitals — and to help them with their math homework! All of these celb’s also recieved jewelry by Whiteflash from their AWEAR collection which donates 25% of all proceeds to help those effected by blood diamonds in South Africa.

In addition, everyone from Danity Kane to the Cheetah Girls had access to a variety of gifts including Nintendo Wii ’s new must-have game (Rayman Raving Rabbids TV Party), fab leather belts by melamed, AWEAR jewelry by Whiteflash.com, and even surf lessons from Surf Diva. Jealous? Uh, I was!
