Event To Attend: Vessels of Virtue Presents - My Sister's Keeper - 5 August 2017



Vessels of Virtue Presents: My Sister’s Keeper

The second edition of the “My Sister’s Keeper” event will be hosted on Saturday, 5 August 2017 by Vessels of Virtue.

As an organization committed to working with women on issues of empowerment, the inspiration for the event is to try and gather women who can join hands and build lasting relationships.

More so, they are hoping to fundraise for more women to be able to take up short courses in hand, specialized or soft skills.

Following the success of their first event in 2016, they would like financial support from corporates and, support through partners who can offer or volunteer their skills in counselling, facilitating workshops and business seminars.

They were able to donate equipment to two female entrepreneurs and fund a number of women who were able to study short courses in ICT. In celebration of women’s month, they are looking to extend their reach and have a lasting impact with the women that they work with through this initiative.

Further details of the event can be found on the link below:

South Africa's Gems - My Top 40 Young Movers and Shakers

(image source: https://thewishfactor.wordpress.com) " I am the dream and the hope of the slave. "- Maya Angelou Maya Angelou's poem Still I Rise makes me think of the struggles of yesteryear and how the youth had sacrificed their childhoods and dreams in order for us to be free and achieve our wildest dreams and greatest ambitions. It is no secret that " it is not yet uhuru " but with the youth of today leading an economic revolution through entrepreneurship and representation in corporate SA, the future is bright. Below is a list of young movers and shakers who excite and inspire me (in no particular order). I follow some of them on social media and know some of them personally. All of them are definitely putting our country on the world map and it’s heartwarming to follow their stories and successes. Representation matters. Seeing young people self-actualize inspires other young people to do the same. After all... “we are the ones...

Luxury Champagne Campaign: The Stories Behind My Favourite Champagne Brands

Lily Bollinger was once asked " When do you drink champagne?",  and she replied:  “I only drink champagne when I'm happy, and when I'm sad. Sometimes I drink it when I'm alone. When I have company, I consider it obligatory.  I trifle with it if I am not hungry and drink it when I am. Otherwise I never touch it - unless I'm thirsty.” In the words of Madame Bollinger, champagne does not need an occasion and I believe it to be true. Once you fall in love with it, you will not be a fan of anything else…unless you are me; I love a good glass of Pinot Noir too. The aspect that makes luxury brands stand out are the stories behind the brands. Story-telling is a major component of brand building when it comes to luxury brands; it is no longer about convincing a consumer to make the purchase but to rather be a part of the story. The stories behind brands such as Dom PĂ©rignon and my personal favourite, Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin are ones that warm my heart....
