(I-Canada-News.Com, January 09, 2013 ) Markham, ONT -- For thirteen years, Widget Love have been creating and distributing innovative gadgets throughout the globe from their centers in Asia and North America. Their work has improved the lives of their customers in a variety of small but significant ways, like allowing them to use their phones and keep their hands warm at the same time by developing winter gloves that work with capacitative touchscreens. Now they are looking to help change people’s lives by sponsoring a Livingsocial 5km charity run for two major charities, D.Light and Mercy Corps.
The Canadian owned company has stated that the purpose of the event was to raise awareness and improve the quality of life for people, by alleviating suffering, poverty and oppression. D.Light and Mercy Corps are engaged in improving the lives of millions of people who are impoverished, compelling Widget Love to join the cause.
The mission of the charity D.Light is to enable households without reliable electricity to attain the same quality of life as those with electricity by replacing every kerosene lantern with clean, safe, and bright light. The organization hopes to bring light to 100 million people by 2020.
Mercy Corps is committed to improving the lives of the impoverished and oppressed by helping people build secure, productive, and just communities.
The 5km Run allowed runners to raise sponsorship and donate it all to the charities, ensuring they can continue with their missions with the benefit of essential donations.
A spokesperson for Widget Love explained, “From our hair chalk to our tactile touchscreen gloves to our Widget Love makeup brushes, we have been making a small but significant difference to how our customers live their lives for over a decade. We felt that the living social event was a great cause and an opportunity for Widget Love to contribute towards the lifestyle improvements of millions of people by supporting these worthy charities, the funds will help bring light and life back to these poverty stricken communities.”
