MORE SCARVES!!!!

I just wanted to say thanks to all of you who have already purchased a scarf or more, to help me fund raise for a very worthy cause.

For those of you who would like to know a little more about where your money will be going...
Every year, MEDLIFE sends 3 medical Brigades to either Peru or Ecuador. Every brigade requires MEDLIFE members to raise $5000 to send doctors and medicine to these two countries. So with each scarf that you buy, we can afford to send more medicine and supplies to very deserving and in need communities.

A little background about the scarf you are purchasing...
Each scarf has been hand woven by Ecuadorian women in the community of Cebadas, Ecuador. They are very beautiful and soft works of art. Medlife bought the scarves from the local women in an effort to help the local economy and has now turned it into a unique fundraiser. We buy the scarves and sell them, to simply send the money right back to the people.

Once again thank you to everyone who has and will be a part of a worthy cause. I appreciate your help on behalf of MEDLIFE and the people that we help.

I will be dropping scarves off during Thanksgiving break, so please have your money ready! Also I will include a card with every scarf, detailing its origins and a little about MEDLIFE.

CANT THANK YOU ALL ENOUGH!
