The buy-one-and-donate strategy is present across virtually every industry from shoes to water bottles. Bracelets are an item that has brought special interest to cause marketing; it's been almost ten years since the LiveStrong band and a myriad of charities are following the same model.
The power of social recognition is very strong, as people like to showcase their altruistic endeavors, so wearing a bracelet on your arm that demonstrates you support a cause becomes a fad over night. In 2012, Mud Love charity bracelets will be everywhere. They are going to become the new Silly Bandz, except even bigger because of their charitable connotation.
