Greetings in the Name of His Imperial Majesty JAH RAS TAFARI & HIM Empress Menen
Some news from Rasta Ites online store.
Even though
the Amazon store has been up and running for about 18 months now, I&I have
only earned enough from the UK store to send a little over £10 ($15) to
Ethiopia. The US store has earned more money still I&I have to reach $100
to get a cheque from them and the total stands at $59.49
A new link has been added to CDBaby the online store that sells music direct from the musicians, thereby cutting out the middleman, which means that the artists get more money from each sale. Give thanks to Stone Tiger Productions for this.
If you
enter through the links at Rasta Ites Store or the link above then
$1 for each CD sold goes to the Rastafari Agro-Cultural School and Goahe Music
Academy in Ethiopia.
Also anything bought from Amazon by entering through the Store
links will earn commission for R.A.S. and GOAHE
(Update: from April 2004, any money raised now goes to the Empress Menen Foundation Elders Fund as the above mentioned charities are no longer working in Ethiopia)
Items available from Amazon include books, CD, DVDs, toys,
games, software, hardware, kitchen appliances, + more. The US store also has
clothes, jewellery and watches, sporting goods etc.
Please, please, please remember this when purchasing items. Still do not buy something just to donate money; it is much better to send donations straight to the Empress Menen Foundation.
REMEMBER EVERY LITTLE HELPS.
JAH guidance
