Instalment 2: The problem we are helping to solve

www.bonhappi-T.com

Actually, it's 2 problems at once, with 1 thing - how cool is that 😀  bonhappi-T's DNA is 1bon+1T=2happi which means: 1 good person buys 1 bonhappi-T shirt and instantly makes 2 happy - the good person who gets a quick, easy chance to make a consistent difference in a life and the person/dog who gets food for an entire month (haha I studied Maths so makes sense that our brand essence is a sum!) Here it is in more detail...

PROBLEM 1:
The difficulty for people to regularly make a meaningful difference in the lives of those less fortunate, even though they would like to.


Rural community, KwaZulu Natal, South Africa

CAUSE
* there is little opportunity for everyday people to connect with the less fortunate as the 2 groups lead very different lives

Street Artist Giffy Duminy adds value by painting a wall at Zwakele Primary School
* generally small donations are pooled by consumer brands and then given as one combined payment from the company/brand - we enable people to make a meaningful difference all on their own

Tiffany fed someone for a month, just by buying a bonhappi-T.com shirt for herself :)


PROBLEM 2:
Widespread hunger


CAUSE
* the world produces enough food to feed everyone but poverty causes 1 in 8 people to go hungry every day

Alexandra township residents queuing for donated food
* underprivileged people don't have sufficient money to survive and often go without food

Philipine cooks meals from donated food for the hungry every day
Thankful for a lunch

* almost half of all edible food ends up in landfills

Our feeding partner FoodForward SA secures edible food before it is sent to a landfill for their 600 beneficiary organisations, feeding over 250 000 people a day

Next week, it's all about how we help you sort this out.

Be happy :)
