In a Nutshell

Scented himalayan soaking salts packaged by adolescent parents who are learning career-readiness skills and gaining work experience

The Fine Print

When adolescent parents arrive at New Moms, Inc. seeking supportive services, 80% of them have dropped out of school and are reading at an average fourth-grade level, according to a report by the organization. Help New Moms, Inc. empower adolescent parents to become self-sufficient with this Grassroots campaign: for $22, you get a 32-ounce package of pink himalayan soaking salts from Bright Endeavors, a social enterprise of New Moms, Inc. (a $33 value). Shipping is included.

After sprinkling 2–4 ounces of pink himalayan soaking salts into a full tub, customers luxuriate in the gentle aromas of rosemary and mint bodycare oils. The fair-trade salts come wrapped in biodegradable bags and labels, trumpeting Bright Endeavors’ commitment to creating eco-friendly products, which are handmade and packaged by program participants. All proceeds from the company's sales go to support its parent organization, New Moms, Inc., which assists adolescent parents with food programs, supportive housing, and career services.

Bright Endeavors’ career-readiness program empowers adolescent parents to become self-sufficient, young adults. As part of the program, inner-city parents aged 17–24 living in Chicago manufacture and market eco-friendly home and bath products to customers nationwide. Through its on-the-job training, Bright Endeavors offers adolescent parents the opportunity to develop the neccesary skills required to transition into sustainable careers.

The Groupon Guide to: Empty 2-Liter Soda Bottles

Everyone loves drinking soda pop straight out of 2-liter bottles, but when the soda pop is all gone, you've got to recycle that empty plastic container, a process that can be awful and horrible. Make the end as fun as the beginning with these tips for hanging on to those empties and using them for fun:

  • Play sports with them. An empty 2-liter bottle is the perfect object to use as a whiffle-ball bat or a weird basketball that's incredibly frustrating to use.

  • Turn them into pieces of art. You can do this by filling them with just about anything because most art isn't very good.

  • Bring them to a sporting event and use the bottles as thunder sticks, which are those hollow, cylindrical plastic objects that fans bang together to signal to each other when they should all be quiet for a key play.

  • Throw them up in the air and see if they float!

  • Recycle them the easy, painless way: by just throwing them away in the garbage.

Is a 2-liter bottle filled with roast beef considered art?
