Laura Ansell - Trade-up Challenge

$120 of $1,000 goal
Given by 6 generous donors in 6 weeks

The Trade Up Challenge allows every day New Zealanders to start a micro enterprise and raise money for entrepreneurs in Myanmar and Malawi

Auckland

Hello! This page is all about trading items with the goal of increasing the 'value' of said item each time. It all begins with a mere $2 coin!! Support welcome through donations, offers of trade and then bidding on my final item at auction after a month. Check in to see my most recent trades and help me increase the overall "value" of my business. My goal is to raise $1000 through donations and the sale of my final traded item. All the proceeds go to our projects in Myanmar and Malawi so your donation will make a real difference to the lives of our clients and their communities!

Go Laura! You could even make some trades for your famous Kombucha or Life Changing Loaf haha. Quite seriously though, you could even take hold a yoga class at the bowls club behind your house and charge your friends $5 to attend! Is that cheating?... #wholesomelife
