This Spring, Join FITE


Several weeks ago (try a month ago), I attended a press event held by esteemed skincare brand ‎Dermalogica in celebration of their commitment to Financial Independence Through Entrepreneurship (FITE). FITE is a global empowerment platform powered by Dermalogica founder Jane Warwund and Kiva.org, the nonprofit leader in microfinance.

The goal
Just as their name suggests: to provide women entrepreneurs access to small loans that will help them start or grow a business; and to help educate the public at large about the benefits of empowering women entrepreneurs.

How can you help?
With every purchase of a FITE-sleeved Dermalogica product, you will receive a code. Visit joinFITE.org to redeem your code and Dermalogica will donate a $1 microloan - on your behalf - to a female entrepreneur in the country of your choice. After a few weeks, you’ll receive information about the entrepreneur who is benefiting from your action.

Please don't forget that you can still help the people of Haiti, donate to the Red Cross today. Thank you.
