Eco Lips Creates Cause Balm Program for Non Profits and Service Organizations to Raise Money and Awareness

CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa, Feb. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Eco Lips (www.ecolips.com), America's premium organic lip balm company, has created Cause Balm (www.causebalm.com), a program whereby non profits and service organizations can bring attention to their goodwill projects and raise funds at the same time. The program is simple: Eco Lips produces a high quality, organic lip balm branded with the organization's logo and messaging, offers it at www.causebalm.com and the organization earns $1 to $2 from the sale of the product.

With Haiti being a top priority, Eco Lips responded immediately by adopting Worldwide Village into the Cause Balm program by creating a lip balm that donates $2 of every product sold through the end of February. Worldwide Village (www.worldwidevillage.org) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization founded in 2001 by a group of people who share a mutual desire to meet the basic survival needs of less fortunate families. 100% of donations received by them for earthquake relief will be used solely for rebuilding in Haiti.

Each participating organization is detailed at www.causebalm.com along with an easy-to-use "shopping cart system" for ordering online. Cause Balm Charities include:

The Breast Cancer Society, Inc. – www.breastcancersociety.org

Shakti Rising – www.shaktirising.org

Cheerful Givers – www.cheerfulgivers.org

Motivating Miles Foundation, Inc. – www.motivatingmiles.org

Worldwide Village – www.worldwidevillage.org

Vitamin Angels – www.vitaminangels.org – to be posted on the site soon

For each approved organization, Eco Lips produces a flavored lip balm, made with certified organic ingredients.
