HALOs for Haiti's Littlest Angels
|
|
Triangle TRACKS, Social Butterflies and 12 other local businesses are joining forces to raise funds for an orphanage in Haiti Called God's Littlest Angels (http://www.glahaiti.org)
(GLA). The project is called "HALOs for Haiti's Littlest Angels" and
the purpose of it is to "Help Accommodate and Love an Orphan." To make
this fundraiser possible, local businesses kindly donated FUN stuff for
kids to do that have been divided into 25 HALO Passes. All 25 passes
will be offered to members of Triangle TRACKS March 1. Then, on March 6, Social Butterflies subscribers will be given access to the passes. On March 8,
remaining passes will be offered to the general public. Please consider
purchasing a pass or two to support the children of this orphanage. You
can learn more about the project here: http://www.triangletracks.com/notes/HALOs_for_Haiti%27s_Littlest_Angels.
If you are not a member of Triangle TRACKS and wish to purchase a pass,
email me your information and which pass you would like and I will submit your name to Elizabeth Shugg. You can contact me at CaryHeise@yahoo.com.

 Are you participating in any of the children's consignment sales?? I LOVE it! Recycle and reuse...and make a couple dollars. A couple of years ago we created a "Green Issue" of Social Butterflies with your many suggestions of how you are making your home and family Earth friendly. I would love to share your ideas again in the April issue. Please email me at CaryHeise@yahoo.com with your favorite green tips!
