Holiday in Pink 2013

It is the 1st of November and Proud & Pretty has some news...  This year's Holiday in Pink Charity Event will be done differently than the last two years.  We will be doing a week long Virtual Holiday in Pink fundraiser in order to continue our mission of raising money for the incredible V-Day!

We sent out this months newsletter which contains info about this event.  Here are those details plus more!

For those of you who are unfamiliar with V-Day here is some information.  V-Day is a global movement to end violence against women and girls.  It was founded by Eve Ensler who is also the creator of the Vagina Monologues.  For the past three years, Chelsie and Chandra have dedicated themselves to raising money through Proud & Pretty in Pink in order to help V-Day further their work.  Learn more about V-Day here: www.vday.org

We have raised around $1,000.00 at each event during the past two years and are hoping to double that this year. We need help from all our Proud & Pretty girls, supporters and followers in order to make this happen.

During the week of December 2nd-7th we will be working to raise this money.

We encourage you to donate, buy raffle tickets for some amazing items we will be raffling off, spread the word, and watch some videos we will posting during this week.  We will have a few surprises and one BIG raffle item!  We will be driving around the Inland Empire and LA on Saturday the 7th to collect cash and check donations, give raffle tickets and hand out gift bags.  All raffle winners will be drawn on Saturday (the 7th) evening and we will post that video of the winners along with the total amount raised from Holiday in Pink 2013!

We will be incorporating many things that we've done at past Holiday in Pink's:

Raffles:
-There will be raffle baskets just like the last two years.  Raffle Tickets for these baskets will be $2.00 and can be purchased in person or on our website.  We will be announcing the baskets and all the contents before the Holiday in Pink Week.  Tickets will go on sale on Dec. 2nd and will be sold until 5pm on Saturday the 7th. 

-There will be one BIG item we will be raffling as well.  For each $20.00 donation, you will receive a ticket for this raffle item.  We will announce this item soon.  You wont be disappointed, we promise!

Videos:
-Make sure to subscribe to our Proud&Pretty YouTube channel.  We will be posting and sharing all videos here. www.youtube.com/proudandpretty
 -We will be working with some fabulous people over the next month. You will want to check them out!

Gift Bags:
-Everyone who makes a donation will receive a gift bag with some Holiday in Pink goodies.

Merchandise Sales:
-During Holiday in Pink week we will have some great deals on Proud&Pretty merchandise.

We will be announcing updates on Holiday in Pink during the month of November so make sure to follow this blog.  Writings in Pink will be the hub of all the pretty details about Holiday in Pink 2013!

Thank you to everyone who supports Proud & Pretty in Pink and our efforts to help V-Day.  We love and appreciate you all.  Please leave comments or questions here and we can start a conversation.
