Kidogo Kidogo Giveaway!

Happy Monday everyone!

I'm back with an amazing giveaway for you all! Besides doing giveaways, one of my favorite things to do on my blog is highlight brands with a social conscience.When Kim, co-founder of Kidogo Kidogo, reached out to me I knew I had to help spread the word about her brand! To over simplify things a bit, Kidogo Kidogo sells iPhone cases. But wait, there's much more to the story! For every purchase they donate a cell phone to a woman in need. Let's file this away in the 'Why didn't I think of that?" category.

If Kidogo Kidogo sounds like a foreign language to you, that's because it is. Kidogo Kidogo means "little by little" in Swahili. The main mission of this company is to put technology in the hands of women in Tanzania. When you buy one of their iPhone cases, you're doing a lot more than just purchasing a new accessory. For each case they sell, Kim and her sister purchase a cell phone for a women in Tanzania. There, cell phones are pre-paid and owners can purchase credits at shops all around the country.

We all know that cellphones are much more than just a way to communicate now. They're a watch, a flashlight, a calculator, a camera, a radio and so much more! In Tanzania, mobile banking is also gaining popularity, and these cell phones help women make secure baking transactions.

How do the women get these phones? Well, the phones are distributed through established non-profit partners already working in Tanzania. They are also currently partnered with FINCA, a global charitable microfinance organization, whose mission is to provide financial services to the world's lowest-income entrepreneurs so they can create jobs, build assets, and improve their standard of living. Also, they have partnered with an environmental NGO in Tanzania, Sea Sense, and designed an adorable case featuring a sea turtle design. A portion of the proceeds from the sales of the sea turtle case will be distributed to Sea Sense who works closely with coastal communities in Tanzania to conserve and protect endangered marine species.

So now that you know about the company, it's time for the giveaway! By entering below, you could win the case of your choice from the Kidogo Kidogo website! Please note that they currently only make iPhone cases and only for the 4/4s and 5/5s models! I'm starting the contest today (March 31st) and it will run until April 9th at midnight (eastern time). There are only a few simple rules:

1. Entries must be domestic (United States only--sorry!)

2. As always, honesty is the best policy! I will be checking entries and I reserve the right to pick another winner if I find entries to be dishonest.

3. I will contact the winner via e-mail or twitter depending on what information I have from you. You will then need to respond with what case style/design you would like. If I don't hear from you within a reasonable amount of time (usually a few days) I will have to pick another winner.

That's it! Sorry to be so formal (it's so unlike me, I know!) I just want to make sure there is zero confusion with the process. But that's it, you can enter below and good luck! Don't forget to comment on this post and tell me what case you would pick if you won!
