Our first CHARITY PARTNER DONATION

Thanks to our Q42022 Charity Partner, ACEing Autism, for helping us to get the word out …

As most of you have seen through social media already, Zo Much More is thrilled to mark the end of our first official quarter(ish) in business with a donation of $450 to ACEng Autism!!! This donation represents 20% of topline revenue.

Safe to say, Zo Much More's early success has exceeded even our own expectations. As we reflect on these earliest days of our social enterprise, we are incredibly grateful for the gamut of opportunities that your support has created for us. We've had the chance to sell in person the NHS Craft Fair and also, of course, through our website/word of mouth. We had the chance to create bracelets to unify teams, mark corporate milestones, celebrate successes, express gratitude and sometimes just to brighten days. We've had friends come to volunteer their time to make bracelets with Zoe and we've also reconnected with some old friends along the way. 

And while the bracelet side of the business really dominated this past quarter's revenue, Zo Much More did take on a few swag bag assembly gigs along the way as well. At the same time, Zoe has been getting a ton of valuable experience for the service side of the business through her NHS PG internship at Temple Beth Shalom (TBS) where she assembles hundreds of holiday kits, labels COVID testing kits, sorts through legos, markers, etc. and does a lot of other meaningful work that plays to her strengths and makes valuable contributions to daily operations. This isn't work that's being created to give Zoe something to do; this is work that needs to be done - and Zoe happens to do very well. Very grateful to the team at TBS for creating that win-win environment and hope many more organizations will follow their example.

Please look for the announcement of our charity partner for this quarter coming very soon ... and as always, be on the lookout for Zo Much More ahead!
