Caribbean Pink Monthly Update July, 2013


Caribbean Pink
Room Refreshing Service


Monthly Update - July, 2013

Another month has already passed! July started with the creation of a Facebook page for Caribbean Pink: 
https://www.facebook.com/RoomRefreshingService

I was completely blown away by the support that this page received. In less than 48 hours, the page got over 100 'likes' and several offers of practical help! As an admittedly emotional person, I found myself tearing up with joy! Thank you to each and every one of you who have 'liked' the page, and shared it with your friends. Please continue to share the link to the Caribbean Pink page on both Facebook and Twitter, using the hashtag #CaribbeanPink to help increase awareness and support of this venture. 

Unfortunately, I have not yet been able to present the Caribbean Pink vision to the board of the church that I am hoping to begin running the service through. I am in conversation with the leadership, and hope to have a date for this to happen soon. However, something else happened during the month which I am very excited to share with you all...

A couple of weeks ago I had a fantastic brainstorming session with Allison from Ancient Light. As a result of this conversation, Allison has started the design process of an exclusive candle, unique to Caribbean Pink, that will be available to purchase. A generous percentage of every candle sold will be donated directly to our cause! The candles will be available for a strictly limited time, so keep an eye on the Caribbean Pink Facebook page to find out when and how you can buy one or more of these fantastic environmentally friendly, soy wax creations!

That's the lot for this month. A reminder that if you know of anyone who may want to be involved, either through volunteering in any capacity, or making a donation of goods or finances, please do share this vision with them, and ask them to contact me at caribbeanpink.natasha@gmail.com. I am also more than happy for you to make suggestions, or ask me any questions you might have about the process of getting this service up and running, and how I envision it operating.

Thank you once again for your support. Know that you are an essential part of making this service happen, and bringing some joy to the lives of people with debilitating long term illness.
