Marbey Goes Green

During the month of April, we will be continuing our dedication to our community involvment by celebrating being Green. Through out the month, we will be selling the limited edition “Save The Trees” t-shirt. Portions of the sales will go towards the planting of trees in NYC by GrowNYC. GrowNYC is a non-profit based in New York City that focuses on improving the environment with programs that help communities and New Yorkers keep a healthy environment. They provide access to local food, creation of green spaces and gardens, recycling assistance, and educational programs on the environment. During the month, we will be offering tips and facts on being green through Facebook and Twitter. Please join us to support this cause.

Marbey Supporting Mama Luke's Foundation

Since October of 2010, Marbey has been involved with The Mama Luke Foundation. The Mama Luke Foundation is a charity for breast cancer awareness in honor of Gay Frances ("Mama Luke") Gunn-Lucas founded The Kangol Kid, of the iconic Hip-Hop group UTFO. With the help of hip-hop legends such as LA Sunshine, Dana Dane, and Roxanne Shanté, The Mama Luke Foundation has become a major movement in the hip-hop community as one of the leaders in breast cancer awareness. We have continued to sponsor and support this cause by The Mama Luke Foundation and we would like to encourage our community to support the cause as well. We would like to thank Kangol for giving us the privilege to be a part of this great cause.

Marbey Gives

We have just passed a very important time for Marbey Clothing. On Sunday, November 1^st, Marbey donated a portion of its sales since August 1^st to Autism Speaks (http://www.autismspeaks.org/) on behalf of Julio Corado. On November 1^st Julio conquered the New York City ING Marathon. He has also raised money for Autism Speaks and has surpassed his donation goal. To support Julio with his goal, Marbey has been working with him to help raise donations. Please support Julio and the awareness of Autism by giving back. Our last Community blog past was an interview with Julio. Please read.

November 1^st closed out Breast Cancer Awareness month. For the month of October, we were selling our Limited Edition Breast Cancer Awareness t-shirts for women. 20% in sales of the t-shirts was donated to Making Strides Against Breast Cancer (http://tinyurl.com/kuqeqo). We were fortunate to participate in the Breast Cancer Awareness walk and show our support for the fight against breast cancer.

It is never too late to donate and give back. Marbey encourages everyone to give back to these causes and their communities. At Marbey, we believe in living, not just surviving and we will continue to give. We would like to thank everyone for buying and supporting the causes Marbey participates in.

Live it, don’t just survive.
