APARTMENTPUP for Charity

Hello folks:

If you like our website so far, here is one way to say 'thank you'.

APARTMENTPUP for Charity is our initiative to give back to our community by supporting various charitable causes. And so we came up with this idea to first 'monetize' all of your 'thank yous' we look forward to receiving for our service, and then to donate 100% of the proceeds to those in greater need. We will try to run our campaigns around some local events, where by our participation, we can also spread the awareness about things that really matter.

One 'thank you' equals $5, but feel free to add more of them to your cart to say: 'very much'. And we will pass it on.

Currently we are trying to help our friend, Carla Murphy, who is rowing around Manhattan to raise money for 'Rocking the Boat', a South Bronx youth development organization that serves over 3,000 young people and community members each year, engaging them in building wooden boats, sailing them, and using them to conduct a complex range of Bronx River science and research projects to restore Bronx River and develop into empowered and responsible adults.

You can help us in this effort by purchasing a $5 brick on our website (click on 'add to cart' button below and follow the instructions) and we will donate every penny we receive directly to Rocking the Boat. Alternatively, donate on this site:

Rock the Boat with Carla!

Rocking the Boat empowers young people challenged by severe economic, educational, and social conditions to develop the self-confidence to set ambitious goals and gain the skills necessary to achieve them. Students work together to build wooden boats, learn to row and sail, and restore local urban waterways, revitalizing their community while creating better lives for themselves. Kids don't just build boats, boats build kids.
