This is Awesome…Great way to help flood victims
I received this email today and wanted to pass along the info ASAP. I think it is a great way to show your support to flood victims. Remember they will be facing a very long clean up process and as we go on with our lives they will still be trying to reconstruct their’s, even months from now. Now would be a great time to purchase a gift or two for upcoming birthdays or holidays while helping a great effort. A real win-win situation.
As most of you know, I moved to Billings from Iowa City exactly one year ago. So needless to say, I have been deeply saddened by the recent flooding in that beautiful area of the country. I have wanted to do something to help out my friends and loved ones that have been impacted by this terrible disaster. I am glad to say I have found a way to help. Bagolitas, which is based in Iowa City/North Liberty, Iowa is hosting a ONE DAY event to benefit the victims of the floods. Friday June 20th If you live here in Billings , you can come to see the bags in person at Granite Fitness from 8-11 am or you can call me to make an appointment to come to my house and shop my shelves. (rebecca-boyce@bagolitas.com) If you live in another great part of the country, you can shop online at the Bagolitas web site (www.bagolitas.com). No matter where you shop or what you buy, a portion of your purchase including my entire commission on the bags will be donated to flood relief. So please take a moment to shop and buy a handbag (or anything else cute Bagolitas carries.) Please mention my name ( Rebecca Boyce) and Flood Relief when you are checking out so that Bagolitas will know to donate my commission. I truly appreciate your willingness to help out in the face of this sad and tragic event. I know I have such terrific customers and friends that this will be a huge success! Come on gals – Let’s buy a Handbag for a Sandbag!!! Please contact me if you have any questions. Thank you so much! Please feel free to pass along this message to anyone you know that might want to buy a handbag to help.
Let’s help. If you have not already done so please forward a link to our flood posts ( http://blog.totallyready.com/?cat=17 and http://blog.totallyready.com/?p=126) to all your friends. I received this email through a second party which proves my point…if the person you send a link to is not involved in the flooding someone they know may be.
Do you know of a legitimate fund raiser? Email me and I will check it out and post a link.
