Necklace for a Cause; Shop for a Cause

I discovered this necklace through a social media post of a friend. I was in great awe looking at it. Personally, seas are not my thing. I go to the beach just for relaxation, sleeping under a coconut tree, sight-seeing people swimming or surfing, and breathing rhythmically with the waves. I know how to float but I am not a good swimmer.

Anyways, I bought this necklace because of a precious memory I had last March 2022 when I went home back to Cebu after 2 years in the pandemic. Alon – the name that represents the waves of the ocean brought by the changing tides and the breeze of the wind. It is the journey I took, as soon as I start to decide living independently, away from home. It is the unexpected endeavors I faced that help me discover what life has to offer.

I got this beautiful necklace from Isolana Co. They ship nationwide in the Philippines and even overseas, like Indonesia, Thailand, Japan, Singapore, Malaysia, and Hong Kong. There are a lot of products the shop has to offer – necklace, bracelet, anklet, prints, coaster, and gift boxes.

When I visited and explored their website, I discovered that they are not just a shop – but a shop for a cause, a Social Enterprise. I became ecstatic. There are a lot of good necklace designs. Then, I saw Alon. I added it to cart and checked out. Luckily, they had a promo on their website, 10% off. To be honest, I really don’t mind about the discount. While purchasing the product, my thoughts are with the beneficiaries of Alon.

Buying the Alon necklace helps the Waves for Water Philippines where in 12% of the sales is donated to them, in support of the organization’s current and future projects geared towards solving global water crisis.

I placed an order on May 28, shipped from Cebu, Philippines to Quezon City, Metro Manila, Philippines. I was shocked that it was free shipping. I paid using PayMongo (GCash). I was so excited for my order to arrive. Fast forward, June 2! It is here! I took a lot of photos and tried fitting it.

The product is in good quality. It came with a box and free stickers. As mentioned in their website, it is an improved necklace, 18K gold-plated stainless steel, saltwater resistant, hypo-allergenic, non-tarnish, lead-free and nickel-free.

I can’t wait to wear this when I go to the beach!

As of May 2022, a total of Php 5,535.41 total donations accumulated through the Alon sales.

Grab yours now. Knowing the shop as a social enterprise makes me more excited and eager to buy from them, more. You may visit their website at https://www.isolana.co/. You can also contact them through their Instagram account – https://instagram.com/isolana.co/.
