Second Annual Olean Area Autism Awareness Rally

Dear concerned citizen and business owner,

I am part of a committee organizing a local fundraiser to raise funds for Olean area families affected by Autism. This committee is made up of parents that have a child with Autism and professionals that work to make a difference in the lives of those affected by Autism.

As you may have seen in the news, the latest CDC research shows that 1 in 150 children are now diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder, and a staggering 1 in 98 boys. Our rural area has not escaped these statistics. Unfortunately, we have limited access to educational and treatment resources that are available in larger cities.

We still believe that we can make a difference. We are organizing the Second Annual Olean Area Autism Awareness Rally. This event will be held on April 25th from 1-4 PM at Jamestown Community College- Olean. This exciting event will include educational materials about Autism, Autism Awareness materials for purchase, a basket raffle, food and beverages, and children’s entertainment including a “Passport to Autism Awareness!” All proceeds raised from this fun and family oriented event will benefit our local efforts to support families affected by Autism Spectrum Disorders. Proceeds from our last Autism Rally helped to establish the Olean Area Autism Resource Library which houses educational books and videos available to parents and professionals.

What can you do to help? We are looking for donations of food, gift certificates, and products to put in our baskets for the Basket Raffle. Cash donations will also be gratefully accepted. Any help of any kind will help to make a difference in the life of a child affected by Autism. All donations are tax-deductible, and all major sponsors will be recognized on our Autism Rally t-shirts. Checks can be made out to “Mental Health Association of Cattaraugus County-Autism Rally” and sent to 502 N. Union St. Olean, NY 14760.

Our theme this year is “Family, Community, and Schools: An integrated partnership for serving children on the Autism Spectrum”. We look forward to partnering with you this year to benefit a great cause.



Sincerely,


Olean Area Autism Awareness Rally Committee Members

My Very First Card I Made!

Best Friends Forever Card

Here is a beautiful card to show how much you care about your friend. This card was decorated with sticker embellishments with wording and a beautiful butterfly, and a wonderful saying on the inside by Eleanor Roosevelt. Very simple and not too extravagant.

This card also comes with a nice ivory envelope

Thanks Goes Out To Everyone!

I did a promo last month for donating 50% of my sales to the March of Dimes. The total came to $25 with me matching the other half. I would like to thank everyone that purchased item(s) from both of my shops. Here are the total amounts donated from each shop:

JodisCraftEmporium - $6 ($3 in total for the sales and a $3 match)

LuxSpa - $19 ($9.50 in total for the sales and a $9.50 match)


I am still accepting donations for sponsoring me in the walk for the March of Dimes that will be happening on April 26th. Just click on Sponsor Me in the right hand column under the March of Dimes header. Every little bit helps.


For the month of April I am donating 50% of my sales to Autism Awareness from both of my shops.

Two Small Elegant Flowers

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=23313541

These flowers would make a great addition anything that you have in mind and they come in a set. They would make great embellishments to your scrapbook, hats, scarfs, curtains, headbands, you name it. They are beautifully crocheted in 100% cotton yarn and in tea rose for that beautiful spring/summer look.

I purposely left the extra string so you could have the choice if you want them left on there the way they are, the outside string tucked in to the middle, or all strings tucked in with the excess cut completely off. Please let me know in the note to seller how you want them to look.

These flowers can be custom ordered too. So if you need more than two please notify me. At that point I will let you know the cost to how many you need and the time frame to when they would be finished. If you order more than 10 they will be at wholesale price.
