M.A.C Aids Fund etc.

Back again, sooner than I thought :o)

I recently got messages from a few readers asking me to update the info I put on Naija networking sites and Aliko Dangote. So just to add to these:

• Aliko Dangote is actually the first Nigerian billionaire and second black billionaire - how's that :o)


• Two more Naija networking sites to look at are www.naijaconnects.com (looks really cool) and www.nigeria-connected.com

M.A.C Aids Fund

M.A.C is one of the most popular makeup brands amongst Nigerian and African ladies and around the world. I will be doing a feature on Make up as well as Nigerian makeup artists soon. But speaking of Makeup, M.A.C recently celebrated the M.A.C AIDS fund, which raised $100 million, in New York City last year. If you are interested in philanthropy and charity (focusing on AIDS and HIV), M.A.C can actually support you via a grant. Check out the fund website and apply, they take applications all year round. If you are keen to know more about this, they have a press section with articles talking about the fund.

As a customer, if this appeases you, keep buying the Viva Glam range from M.A.C. Eve is one of the faces of M.A.C as well as Fergie and Dita Von Teese. These ladies are spokesmodels for the M.A.C. brand.

Speaking of Eve, check out her video with Sean Paul for the song "Give It To You" below
