My sister caught this info on Martha Stewart today…. “One is greater than None” is an organization started by eight 14-year-old girls who wanted to make a difference in the lives of others. They have recently launched their own line of clothing and are using the proceeds to help kids in other countries. It’s a pretty impressive undertaking and it’s really catching on. Check them out at oneisgreaterthannone.org.

Hey,
This is Ariel another girl from 1>0. We got started by a group of eight girls wanting to make a difference in the world. We all wanted to start a charity, but we didn’t know what our cause should be. We then saw Oprah where she was talking about the children in the fishing trade. We then decided to make bracelets and necklaces to save these children. If you have any more questions, please visit our website oneisgreaterthannone.org.
love,
Ariel

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR FEATURING ONE IS GREATER THAN NONE ON YOUR WEBSITE!!!!! I am one of the members of one is greater than none, and i am so honored that someone took notice in our efforts and felt it was necessary to post on their very own website. I think that your “Girls Can’t What?” is inspiring and it sends out message that is similar to the message of One is Greater Than None; anyone can do anything. Keep it up! :-D :-D :-D

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU for helping to spread the word.
The girls had an incredible time at The Martha Stewart Show and the response to their segment has been incredible! They are receiving donations, orders, and supportive emails from around the US and in Canada! :)
The girls will also be featured in the Dec/Jan 2008 issue of TeenVOGUE that hits newstands mid-November.
Please know that the girls have committed to sponsoring 8 enslaved children from Ghana in January. Their plight is unbelievably heartbreaking.

Please also email us if your favorite store doesn’t sell the One Is Greater Than None activwear line yet. We’ll then give them a call!
The girls were wearing the clothing on TV. It’s everything you want to wear…hoodies with thumb holes, cropped fleece dorm pants, football fiited tees, crew tees…Also- most of it is ORGANIC- made from bamboo…which is SOOOOO much better for the environment…
Thank you again,
Kerry
