From the Desk of my eSis, Luvvie, of awesomelyluvvie.com:
***Public Service Announcement ALERT***
"...March 10th is National Women and Girls HIV/AIDS Awareness Day, and my girl Karyn of The Fab Giver and I came up with the idea of The Red Pump Project. The concept is simple: On March 10th, we'd like female bloggers to rock the Red Pump widget that I designed on their blog to represent the strength and courage of women fighting HIV/AIDS or affected by the disease. And to raise awareness about the epidemic and its effect on women (Black women especially, who make up 66% of women newly infected with HIV). To sign up to participate, please just comment on this post with your email address, or hit me up at Luvvieblog at gmail dot com. If you sign up, I will send you instructions and the html code of the widget. Also, your blog will be linked on a post on my blog that will run on that day. Our goal is to get at least 100 bloggers to participate in the Red Pump Project. Besides, the Red Pump will add a touch of FIERCE to your already FABULOUS blogs! Your participation will be appreciated a TON!
Sidenote: I literally spent ALL of Saturday designing the Red Pump. I drew it by hand first, then executed it using Adobe Illustrator. You woulda thought Christian Louboutin himself gave me the assignment. I got to pretend that my dream of being a shoe designer for an Italian company came true. *Sigh* Some dreams are permanently deferred. BUT, I would TOTALLY rock that red pump! You shall all see next Tuesday.
***End of PSA***
