Jasper Blake’s Summary

I am honoured to have been asked to manage the social media for a great company with a great product - the UOWHO bracelet.

If someone asked you to think about doing a single kind thing, most of us would try, some of us would forget and some would just not get to it. The UOWHO™ bracelet is a simple, tangible reminder. If someone did a kind thing for us and gave us the UOWHO™ bracelet and asked us to pass it on, we would be more likely to follow through.

The bracelets can be 'branded' with your name, logo or website address - so for non-profits looking to raise funds or spread awareness of their cause - or companies looking gain good PR and awareness, what better way than by encouraging random acts of kindness.

Karuna Village is the retail arm of the Fair Trade Cafe in Downtown Phoenix, Arizona.

With the addition of a second cafe in July 09, someone was taken on to run Karuna Village full time.
