A: The ChangeRing is an American product, plain and simple. The ChangeRing and its packaging are proudly Made in America by American workers. We would have it no other
    way. We could make it for a tenth of the price overseas but that would not be consistent with what we stand for...

A: It is actually the word "Change" stamped into it over and over. The font size is big enough that it is difficult to identify the letters but if you look closely, you may be able to tell. "Change" is literally in The ChangeRing.

A: The ChangeRing is about giving and being generous with one another. Therefore, you also "give" a ChangeRing for free when you buy one.

A: No, after you buy and give one, you can give as many as you want for $6.99.

A: Because The ChangeRing's packaging is designed to be returned and reused, it is sent out individually and returned individually. We cannot package them together because postage is prepaid and would vary with the weight of multiple-unit packages.

A: Yes, you can buy hundreds or thousands of ChangeRings. If you would like to buy more than 25 ChangeRings and have them sent to the same address, please email us at info@thechangering.com and we will process your order.

A: No. While The ChangeRing was inspired by Barack Obama's message of change and created in support of his run for the White House, it is not directly associated with his campaign. Part of the proceeds from the sale of The ChangeRing will be donated to the campaign. You can track our progress on The ChangeRing Tracker Map and also on barackobama.com and also help us by donating through our donation tracking page at: http://my.barackobama.com/page/dashboard/public/gDhMs

A: If what you want to do is put money directly into Barack Obama's campaign, then the answer is yes! There are two links on every page of our site to donate to his campaign and we encourage you to do so.
The ChangeRing is not solely about raising money for Barack Obama's campaign. It's purpose is also to spread and raise awareness of his message. It is all about communication and connection between people.
By giving The ChangeRing to your friends and family, you are sharing with them a message of Change. By wearing or carrying The ChangeRing, you are spreading this message to everyone who sees it. The ChangeRing was inspired by Obama and what he stands for. To this end, The ChangeRing is about creating jobs, making and selling American products, calling attention to green packaging methods, and connecting people through generosity and giving….

A: Upon activation of your "Boomering SMS" lost key retrieval system (after you receive your ChangeRing), you will be able to select one of the four charities that we have picked to be beneficiaries of The ChangeRing. Important: We are not representing that any of these charities are endorsing The ChangeRing or Barack Obama. We presume that they are politically neutral. However, we have identified them as top quality charities that are doing amazing work in areas that we feel are important. See about the charities page for more specifics.

A: If what you want to do is give money to charity, then the answer is yes. There are links to the charities that we are giving to on our "About the Charities" page. The links are there so that you can read about the outstanding work that they are doing. It is our hope that if you are inspired, you will give directly to them.

A: The ChangeRing is a for-profit business that has been set up with a social conscience in order to support causes that we think are important. Our mission is to send a positive message to the world and create awareness of issues that need attention. After the election, The ChangeRing will live on solely as a fund raising vehicle for charities.
