THE HOUSE OF LYDIA

I met with a non-profit organization today called, the House Of Lydia. I've spoken of them before in my blog--last spring some time I believe. They have asked me to set up an event for them. It's going to be a Christmas Basket shopping theme where all sorts of vendors can participate--Party-Lite, Mary Kay, Tastefully Simple, etc. We're targeting those shoppers that want to do early Christmas gifts for those, "What do I get for...?" kind of gifts. So, those that are looking for a particular gift for a college student, their boss or co-worker, or possibly their child's teacher...they're sure to find something here! We're also going to have a cooking decorating table for children while their parent(s) shop, and a shopping table for kids who wish to pick out something special for mom or dad will also be provided. Fun! The thought process has begun and this month we are going to be looking for a restaurant or coffee shop to hold the event, then the organization of everything begins! I'm looking forward to it! It will be like one big home party in a restaurant with a slightly different angle. I'll keep you informed on how it goes. The House of Lydia is a non-profit organization whose focus is to assist and tend to battered women and children. They are presently bidding on homes to fix up and open up so that they can provide a safe haven for these women. They will continue the process of providing parenting classes, financial classes, support groups and Bible studies. The needs of these women and their children will be met as they are assisted in getting ready to move forward in their lives - on to their own homes, etc. To learn more please visit: www.houseoflydia.org. If you are a sales representative yourself, or know of someone who would be interested in participating, please have them contact me sb@acovs.com and put House of Lydia in the subject line. Thanks for your support!
