“Sparkle Change” with Uno Magnetic

Responding to the design needs of his clients is a job Luis Pons is all too familiar with. But now, the Venezuelan interior designer is teaming up with MTV tr3s to fulfill the needs of a totally different crowd: young people.

As part of Pons’ Uno Magnetic accessories collection, a “Tr3s Bling” limited edition set is now available. The Tr3s Bling by Uno Magnetic necklace retails for $19.95 with the option to purchase a black or gold chain for $10.00. Every penny of that, however, will be donated to Ashoka’s Youth Venture, a world wide non-profit organization that encourages young people to create groups of social change.

According to Pons, Uno Bling stands for the same objectives that Ashoka’s Youth Venture promotes, which is a world of inclusion, compassion and tolerance. 100% of the net profits from the sale of each Tr3s Bling will go towards the development of the non-profit’s educational programs.

 

Tr3s Bling by Uno Magnetic is an individually numbered, two piece interactive magnetic necklace with a nickel chain. Engraved in one piece are the words “I am a” and the text “Changemaker” is engraved in the other. When combined, the message reads “I am a changemaker”. Tr3s Bling supports the network’s “Agentes de Cambio” (agents of change) campaign.

As an added incentive, Ashoka and Tr3s also are giving away a pair of tickets to a "Tr3s Presents: MTV Unplugged" in early 2012 to one lucky winner. You can view and order the piece here, and to read and become part of Ashoka’s Youth Venture, visit www.genv.net.
