1 in 8 women in the United States will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. The National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) was founded by breast cancer survivor Janelle Hail, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 1980 at the age of 34. As a result of early detection, she survived the disease and has devoted her life to educate women about early detection and provide mammograms for women in need.

NBCF’s mission is to save lives by increasing awareness of breast cancer through education and by providing mammograms for those in need. To help fullfil it’s mission, NBCF works with hospitals across the nation to provide free mammograms for women. They carefully choose their partners, making sure that all of the medical facilities in their National Mammography Program have funding in place so that they are able to provide additional breast care services to women who need further diagnosis or treatment for breast cancer.

ONEHOPE Wine has been a continued supporter of NBCF’s mission donating 50% of all profits from ONEHOPE California Chardonnay ($3 per bottle online) to provide mammograms for those in need, year-round.

charity: water started five years ago with a simple idea: they’d share their story with the world, ask others to join them, and use 100% of the money raised to fund clean water for people in need.

With your help, they’ve had explosive growth. Their partners in the field are working at capacity to implement their projects. The only way to keep fighting the water crisis at this rate is to buy the equipment their partners need to get the job done faster. Charity:water’s goal for the 2011 September Campaign is to fund a brand new drilling rig and other equipment needed to accelerate their impact. Their partners in northern Ethiopia have already assembled their drilling team and are ready to go.

100%: Every dollar raised or donated funds the drilling rig.

PROOF: charity:water will track the rig with GPS for years to come.

THE GOAL : 100% COVERAGE.
Charity:water’s local partner Relief Society of Tigray (REST), plans to serve 100% of northern Ethiopia with access to clean water. Their strategy includes many water solutions: drilled wells, hand-dug wells, spring protections and rainwater catchments, to name a few. We want to help them reach the target number of drilled wells sooner, which will speed up their plan to achieve 100% coverage -- helping provide 2.2 million people with access to clean water.

Shop & Give starting today at ONEHOPEWine.com to have 10% of your purchase benefit the charity:water September 2011 campaign. You can learn more about charity:water and their mission at www.charitywater.org, on Facebook at facebook.com/charitywater or on Twitter @CharityWater.

Wounded Warrior Project (WWP) is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to honor and empower wounded warriors. WWP seeks to assist those men and women of our armed forces who have been severely injured during the conflicts in Iraq, Afghanistan, and other locations around the world.

Wounded Warrior Project began, in 2003, when several veterans and friends, moved by stories of the first wounded service members returning home from Afghanistan and Iraq, took action to help others in need. What started as a program to provide comfort items to wounded service members has grown into a complete rehabilitative effort to assist warriors as they recover and transition back to civilian life. Tens of thousands of wounded warriors and caregivers receive support each year through WWP programs designed to nurture the mind and body, and encourage economic empowerment and engagement.

You can learn more about the Wounded Warrior Project and their mission at http://www.woundedwarriorproject.org, on Facebook at facebook.com/wwpinc.fans or on Twitter @WWPinc.

Fighting hunger worldwide! The World Food Programme is the world’s largest humanitarian agency fighting hunger worldwide. Whether refugees are fleeing war or drought is destroying farmland, hunger is often the first emergency. The hungry look to the World Food Programme for the first response. On average, WFP feeds 100 million people each year in 77 of the poorest countries.

Now the WFP and the people of the Horn of Africa need our help more than ever. The Horn of Africa encompasses Somalia, Ethiopia, Eritrea, Djibouti and Kenya. It’s one of the most food insecure regions in the world, characterized by frequent droughts and conflict. Concern about the impact of drought in the region escalated in June, when the Famine Early Warning Systems Network, FEWSNET, reported that this year was among the driest since 1950.

Gripped by drought and conflict, millions of people are living on the edge of survival in the Horn of Africa. Over 29,000 children have died in the last month, according to U.N. estimates. This Charity Tuesday we’re giving back to the World Food Programme to provide meals to the millions in need -- as little as $1 can provide up to 4 meals. All you have to do is select World Food Programme from the Shop & Give drop-down, during the next four weeks. For every purchase, we will donate 10% to fight hunger in the Horn of Africa.

You can learn more about the World Food Programme and their mission at www.wfp.org, on Facebook at facebook.com/WorldFoodProgramme or on Twitter @WFP.

Lung cancer gets a bad rap. It has the reputation of being entirely a smokers’ disease, and, thus, doesn’t get the attention and funding it deserves. But the truth is anyone can get it. In fact, 20% of women diagnosed with lung cancer each year -- about 21,000 in 2010 -- have never smoked.

The Bonnie J Addario Lung Cancer Foundation is working hard to erase this stigma and increase the Lung Cancer survival rate. Since its birth in 2006, the BJALCF has grown into the first international collaborative entity of its kind and raised over $6 million for lung cancer research.

No one supported the BJALCF’s mission more than Jill Costello (Sports Illustrated article | ESPN story video), a former Cal student who was diagnosed with lung cancer at the age of 21. Throughout her battle, Jill showed tremendous strength and courage, leading her team to a heroic Pac 10 Championship and 2nd place finish at Nationals just one month before succumbing to the disease. Jill’s story is both tragic and inspirational. And it is especially close to the hearts of the ONEHOPE family, as several of our founders are Cal alums.

The funds raised for BJALCF and Jill’s Legacy go to awareness campaigns that anyone can get Lung Cancer, and to researching new treatments to fight this terrible disease. No one survives the crisis of Lung Cancer without a worldwide web of people and the most up-to-date treatment. There is no better place to funnel research dollars than to BJALCF and its multitude of collaborators and programs, including ALCMI, when it comes to the pursuit of extending and enhancing the lives of patients and families with Lung Cancer.

To learn more about Jill’s inspiring and courageous story and BJALCF’s mission, watch the video below or visit www.lungcancerfoundation.org.

Founded in March of 2009, Mercy’s Village International is an organization dedicated to fighting poverty through the education of children and the empowerment of girls and young women.

For most of Africa’s children, education represents the only way out of a life of poverty. Across the continent, millions of families currently subsist on less than $1.00 a day. Only children who can read, write and do arithmetic can hope to get better paying jobs when they grow up.

But education is about much more than just providing job skills. It’s playing an increasingly vital role in helping children protect themselves against the diseases that can ravage poor communities. Simple information on day-to-day hygiene and disease prevention saves lives and keeps families together

Mercy’s Village is collaborating with local government officials and communities to create a school that offers a safe place where children can learn, play and have access to clean water, a balanced meal and sanitation facilities.

You can learn more about Mercy’s Village at www.mercysvillage.org, on Facebook at facebook.com/mercysvillage or on Twitter @MercysVillage.

ONEHOPE is proud to be able to give back to such a great organization, and now you can help them too!  All you have to do is select Mercy’s Village from the Shop & Give drop-down, during the next four weeks, to donate 10% to the cause.

Mercy’s Village is currently fundraising $250,000 to complete the construction of a school in Northern Uganda. The money will be used for the construction of 3 central school buildings – 9 classrooms, teacher’s quarters, and a community building – digging a bore hole, dormitories and showers for the girls, restrooms and kitchen. 100% of all funds raised for Mercy’s Village via the Shop & Give drop-down will be donated in support of this project.

Herbert Hoover once famously wrote, “Children are our most valuable resource.” The Boys and Girls Clubs of Santa Monica understand this better than anyone. Established in 1946, The Boys and Girls Clubs of Santa Monica provides youth a safe and productive place to go when they need it most; after school and on non-school days. Their mission is to inspire and enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to realize their full potential as caring, responsible and productive citizens. We help youth ages 7 – 18 build confidence, gain valuable academic, social and ethical skills – while having fun.

Since its founding, approximately 150,000 youth have participated in Club programs, which are offered at six sites, which are stand-alone or situated on school campuses or in low income housing throughout Santa Monica.

To Write Love on Her Arms is a non-profit movement dedicated to presenting hope and finding help for people struggling with depression, addiction, self-injury and suicide. TWLOHA exists to encourage, inform, inspire and also to invest directly into treatment and recovery.

Over the four years since TWLOHA was founded, they have responded to 150,000 messages from people in 40 different countries. They’ve had the opportunity to bring this conversation, and a message of hope and help, to concerts, universities, festivals and churches. They’ve learned that these are not American issues, not white issues or “emo” issues. These are issues of humanity, problems of pain that affect millions of people around the world.

Two out of three people who struggle with depression never seek help and untreated depression is the leading cause of suicide. In America alone, it’s estimated that 19 million people live with depression, and suicide is the third-leading cause of death among those 18-24 years old. The good news is that depression is very treatable, that a very real hope exists in the face of these issues. TWLOHA has met people who are getting the help they need, sitting across from a counselor for the first time, stepping into treatment, or reaching out to a suicide hotline in a desperate moment.

Pencils of Promise was founded in October 2008 in hopes of building just one school by creating a movement of people who saw themselves as global citizens, regardless of age or status. Since starting with a $25 deposit, Pencils of Promise has built 20 schools providing more children with access to education — a problem affecting over 75 million children worldwide.

Pencils of Promise has become a global movement of passionate individuals committed to creating a world with greater educational opportunities for all. How? Pencils of Promise partners with local communities to build schools in the developing world and trains young leaders to take action at home and abroad. Making an impact starts small. It only takes $0.32 to provide a child with one day of sustainable education; It only costs $10,000 to build a one classroom school and $20,000 to build a two-classroom school. In 2010, 7 out of every 8 dollars donated to Pencils of Promise went directly to funding both their domestic and international program services.
