Just so you know, my health issues prompted me to “get healthy” and I’m now training for a marathon. But this marathon training isn’t all about me! It’s about raising money to fight leukemia. (Follow my journal at http://SheCanRun.com).
Here’s my first activity. $500 in sales will net a $100 check made out to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, so brothers and sisters, have a ball!! If 25 people spend $20 each, that will hit my goal! Your order is secure and product will be shipped directly to your door.
An Online Body Shop at Home Party!
You just have to go to the web site below (before June 30, 2008), poke around to see what “smells” good to you, put in your order, and they will send me a check made out to LLS for 20% of the total party sales!

Write down my name before you click through, Teresa Holladay, and when you are on the “check out” page, add my name in the “For party orders please enter host name”.
If you just want to donate your $20 directly, go to my official LLS Team in Training website at:

You will be helping to support not only the great cause of the Leukemia Society but the “mother earth” causes of The Body Shop at Home.
Body Shop ladies were at one of our fundraising expos and I LOVED their body butters!! They smell soooo good! I’m a citrus-scent gal so I went for the Satsuma body butter (that smells like oranges and angerines).
I’m looking at the bag of samples they gave me… Olive, cocoa butter, hemp, moringa, mango, brazil nut, passion fruit, aloe, coconut, papaya, shea… They all smell delicious!
What I really liked is that THEY DON’T TEST THEIR PRODUCTS ON ANIMALS!! They have had this policy since 31 December 1990!
Even better, their exotic ingredients come through “community trade”, which means they source ingredients from disadvantaged communities and they offer a fair price so these people can invest in clean water, better education, sanitation, and modern farming methods. It’s also sustainable, meaning, they’re not depleting the natural resources.
It’s win-win-win, and that’s not ALL. If you buy certain products, they donate a percent to fight violence towards women.
P.S. If you have to raise funds for one of YOUR causes, try this one, it’s so much healthier than cookie and candy sales!
