Shopping For the Cure
Online, March 18, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Come participate in the fun fundraising atmosphere offered at By Invitation Only on March 20, 2011 . Our company's mission is to help local organizations hold successful fundraisers for their cause in the comfort of our gift boutique. Attendance is free of charge and free appetizers are provided as you shop. But the best part about shopping with us is a generous portion of every purchase is donated to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS).
From the LLS website: "The mission of The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society is: Cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families. LLS is the world's largest voluntary health agency dedicated to blood cancer. LLS funds lifesaving blood cancer research around the world and provides free information and support services."
The event at By Invitation Only will be hosted by Kelly Jones, nominated for The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society's "Man & Woman of the Year" award. She too has been affected by blood cancer, losing her father, Gene Jones, after a hard fought battle with Leukemia. Kelly has set the goal of raising $50,000 for LLS through a variety of fundraisers and By Invitation Only hopes to get her off to a strong start. In order to reach this goal we need the support and donations of the community, so please join us on March 20, 2011 and help us find a cure for blood cancers.
