A Meaningful Gift: Our New DVD!

A short newsletter is good, especially during the holidays. 

 

No time for a longer one anyway, as life these days is filled with medical appointments.  My husband Jim continues to impress everyone who sees him, even after several weeks of toxic radiation and chemo.  His strength and positive attitude ~ and the love & support surrounding both of us ~ fill me with gratitude.

 

I hope YOU are well, snug, safe and warm in these blessed Holy-Days!

Our New DVD: a GREAT Gift!

Are you still looking for something meaningful to give this holiday season?  Our new DVDs will make wonderful holiday gifts for yourself AND for those you love!

 

This DVD is beautiful, inside and out.  It features:

 • All 17 Little Pearls, including the four new Dog Pearls

 • All earlier Samplers, Collections & Mini-Documentaries ~ touching, potent work that may be new to you

 • 5 different Loops of Pearls, designed for use with varied audiences: All Pearls, Pearls for Kids, Pearls for Younger Kids, Dog Pearls and Pearls of Compassion, Tears & Love

 • A lovely 4-panel recycled stock eco-wallet

 

You can call me at 828-658-9097 or order online or by check via Contribute Now.  I'll do my best to get your DVDs to you as quickly as possible, in person or by mail.

Help Us Fund This Great Work

Donations to Little Pearls are fully tax-deductible AND sorely needed, to help us finish funding the new DVD and new Dog Pearls, and to give us some room to breathe into new Little Pearls and other inspirational projects in 2012. 

 

We had several daunting, unexpected challenges with the new DVD that added significantly to the cost.  The final cost was far more than what was covered by our original grant and matching donations, and much of that cost went onto my family's credit card. 

 

We still need to raise at least $5000 to cover the costs.  Here's how you can help:

  • Give DVDs as holiday gifts to people you really love, including yourself! 
  • Become one of Our Sponsors.  We will set up a new Sponsors page for 2012.  If you sponsored us last year, we'll be contacting you soon, and if you would like to be a new sponsor, please contact me at 828-658-9097 or linda@littlepearls.org.
  • Join in our 2011 year-end matching funds campaign.  Several wonderful anonymous donors are willing to match donations, dollar for dollar, up to $2000 total.  That would help ever-so-much!
  • Just Donate.  Be part of something meaningful.
