The not-for-profit organisation, Falling Whistles, is an inspirational coalition of individuals who tirelessly campaign for peace in the Congo and focus this campaigning on the idea of whistleblowers.
The inspiration for this collection comes from the following story: "The 5 Boys Collection remembers the original whistleblowers. In 2008 we met 5 Boys in a military encampment who had been forced to fight for opposing rebel groups. But when we asked, does that make you enemies, they laughed. One boy reached over and kissed the other, saying, "We are only boys. How can we be enemies?"
We saw the solutions to Congo laying in front of us. Across the world, we are the largest and most connected generation in history. The 5 Boy collection asks, as the boys asked, how can we be enemies?
Wear the whistle and use it as a tool to unite the world toward peace in Congo."
For this reason they have released their 5 Boys Whistle Collection to help benefit the cause. The whistles themselves were all manufactured by one of the oldest whistle makers in the world and feature the incredible intricacy and high quality you'd expect from a manufacturer of this age.
The whistles are available in 5 finishes; Ox Matte TIP, Cast Iron TIP, Matte White TIP, Ox Gloss TIP and Chrome TIP and retail for $59. You can purchase any of these whistle necklaces from the Falling Whistles website here as well as select stockist around the world.
The money raised will help educate, disseminate, congregate, advocate and rehabilitate those living in the Congo. This is a great cause and a fantastic product and we recommend everyone buy one here!
