Campaign Story
In March 2017, I became so involved in self-image and began to grow stressed, to the extent that I developed bulimia. After the recovery process which involved telling family members and receiving medical advice, I began to reach out to my friends and what I found seemed worse than the bulimia. Several other friends had had bulimia and eating disorders, but had not told anyone and had to face the battle alone. The thought of facing this alone completely shook me to my core so I decided to do something. I plan to set up a clothing brand called B, for Burns, for bulimia. for beauty and for bees themselves. I would embroider self-love slogans onto sweatshirts, t-shirts and other clothing items, promoting loving the skin you're in. With each order I would send out self-love tips and information on eating disorders, to break down the stigma against eating disorders, help self-abusers learn to love themselves and to prevent others from eating disorders. 10% of all profit will be donated to National Eating Disorder Assosciaton. However, to begin this I will need the help of others.I already have the embroidery skills and the knowledge of self-love and eating disorders to impart, but I lack funding to buy the materials to make my creations to send to people throughout the world. I would really appreciate your donation so I can spread the love :)
