Good morning dearest readers. Weekend is over and a new week has begun! Yippee skippy!

Today I show you boys and girls a very special beanie. Beanies are everywhere this season. But this black one is not just another beanie. If you buy yourself this one, you help collecting money for this year’s 3FM Serious Request radio program. In collaboration with the Red Cross this year’s edition is calling attention to the plight of women and girls who become victims of sexual violence in conflict regions. From December 18th until December 24th three DJs will generate as much publicity as possible for the victims of sexual violence and collect money for the cause.

Sexual violence affects millions of women and has serious consequences for the physical and psychological health of victims. It is a war crime treated as a taboo and shrouded in shame. This obviously is terrible and I feel so sad thinking of all women and girls affected by it.. Men should keep their hands off of all women and girls in conflict regions. BACK OFF!

If you want to donate money yourself already and stay warm this winter, you can now a get yourself this statement ‘Back off’ beanie from Coolcat (order it online here).
