Subject: ACS Relay for Life Committee promotional video

The American Cancer Society’s Pittsboro Relay for Life Committee would like to invite survivors, caregivers, and relay participants to participate in a promotional video series entitled “Why I Walk.” The goal of this video series is to promote awareness of our local event and the impact it has on our community by sharing the stories of local people. Our goal is to focus on the reason people participate in Relay for Life, whether it is in honor or memory of a family member, or friend, or because they themselves are facing, or have faced, cancer.

Subject: Sensibility vs. HERFF JONES

Have recieved several emails concerning HERFF JONES, their extortion methods,  and the many shades of green gowns floating around Chatham.  Many offers to  donate gowns and many feel the practice of setting up the table in the hall at NW by HERFF JONES sort of pressures kids  to buy or want to buy although many cannot afford.

Subject: Link your grocery cards and help local schools while shopping.

Help out our local schools and link your grocery cards. Everytime you go grocery shopping and use your grocery card a small percentage goes to the school of your choice. It’s a painless way to help out. You don’t even need to have kids in school to do this!

Subject: scholarships Pt. 2

Morning all,

Have gotten some emails about my scholarship post.  These scholarships are almost exclusively for  RISING HIGH SCHOOL SENIORS.  I sent out the note to the chatlist b/c I didn’t think the word was getting out in the schools.  There is so much to think about when your kids get to be close to college and I’m not sure people realize just how much money is out there to be had…..with a little work.
