Yes you are reading correctly! Today I am blogging about the poop of the most celebrated cryptid in Canadian history ... Ogopogo!

Why you may ask? ...... because I came across the website of two very young (aged 12 and 15 year old) entrepreneurial sisters who are making the stuff for charity. And quite successfully too I may add!

Ogopogo Poop is in fact green, watermelon flavoured jelly beans, packaged attractively and being marketed to tourists in the Okanagan Valley of British Columbia. Home to the legendary monster that most closely resembles Nessie of Scottish fame, and reportedly swims in Okanagan Lake.

Their slogan is "we give a poop" which is quite catchy and most definitely fitting. You see these sisters were very touched by the plight of the homeless of Mexico during a recent trip they made to that country. And they have decided that the proceeds from their sales of the "yummy poop" will go to help the poor and homeless children.

The sisters, Chanel and Emily Chartrand, have already spear-headed a campaign where they donated over 200 pounds of goods to poverty-stricken residents of Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Photos they have taken of people living in a garbage dump that appear on their website are indeed heartbreaking. And I applaud the work these young women are doing! They are truly inspirational!

Quoted from The Kelowna Daily Courier newspaper:

“It really makes you think when your friends are bragging about their new expensive gadgets when some people really have nothing,” said Emily. “If people started paying more attention to the poverty in our world there wouldn’t be as much to worry about. You don’t have to be an adult to help. Just be creative.”

Show these young ladies you give a poop too!
