Shop!.... for iPods From Cohen :)

I had several people, some being my sponsors, reach out letting me know they wanted to help with our donation project in memory of Cohen. If you are just tuning in, you can read about it HERE :)

It is SO nice that people offered to help. We really believe this project will be a blessing for many, many families. I've included a little blurb from each shop owner/consultant that shares why they wanted to help be apart of iPods From Cohen :) It still gives me chills that Cohen touched their lives along with many others.

If any others join, I will be sure to add them to this post and update. So, maybe check back periodcally for other shops! Most will run for the month of May.

Thirty-One has a variety of bags, totes, purses and home things! Many of them you can also have personalized. I think it's a great way to stay organized and stylish! Also, the NEW SUMMER CATALOG just came out :)

In Jamie's own words... "I have never met Megan or Brent. I am a stay at home mom of a 20 month old little boy and 3.5 year old little girl. I was pregnant with my little boy while Megan was pregnant with Cohen. I came across her blog and felt a deep sorrow for them but also knew that God gives very special people trials like this...I knew they were special people. I don't have much to give but I started selling Thirty One Gifts in September '11 and have been able to donate money to families that need it. I give my commissions! I just want to be able to help someone in need finanically and hope that I can help them emotionally as well. Ipods from Cohen will help families get through a tough time and if I can be any part of helping...I'm here!!!" 

For iPods: All of Jamie's Thirty-One commission, for this party, will go towards Cohen's iPods :)

Scentsy I've been talking about for a while now. Y'all it smells SO good. I LOVE candles, and I think this is a pretty great alternative to a flame :) I think Scentsy covers a great amount of area as well! 

In Donieda's words... other than your beautiful baby boy, and equally gorgeous little Knox and Sloane... I have loved many, many people with broken hearts as well. None as early as your Cohen though.

In my 27 years of life, I have only heard stories of both grandfathers, unfortunately never met them though because both are angels who were taken due to heart attacks. My moms, father, was just over 30 years old and left my grandma with 6 children, and one on the way. My dads, dad passed away a little later in life, but was never able to teach his little boy to drive, or able to see his daughter get her high school diploma. My dad was only 13 when he became the man of the house.

In 2001 I was a Jr. in high school, my sister was only 12 and my mom was taken to the hospital after having 3 minor heart attacks.  After some time in the hospital and stints being placed in her heart, she was able to leave the hospital within hours of seeing my little sister play in a State Basketball Tournament..with VERY strict cheering orders.  :)  My mom now goes to yearly appointments to have things checked out and make sure that all is well. With the exception of a small bump in the road this past March, things have been well.

I have had 2 uncles experience some severe heart problems as well. Sadly, we lost my Uncle Steve after a quadruple bypass surgery and a very lengthy stay in the hospital due to his heart being not quite strong enough to recover.

In addition to my family, I have an incredible friend and past co-worker that was born with a broken heart, and had a pacemaker all of her life, until last January. At that point, she got the call and received a heart transplant and is doing much better.  

And finally, I have a very close friend with congestive heart failure, Justin. He is 26 years old and has had many, many heart surgeries in the past 5 years. He has been at University of Chicago Hospital since April 11th after LVAD surgery. And has a long road ahead of him.

All that being said, I guess I have just been very affected my Cohen's story because I can relate similarly to dealing with heart complications, although,  not nearly to the extent that you have. I have been a member of Benefits and things like that to assist the families of people with health issues. But I admire you for doing such a great thing to benefit all those affected.

For iPods: 25% of the sales for Cohen's Party go towards the iPods :)

Wildtree is an company with natural products! They have quick and easy recipes, seasonings, breads, mixes and much more that are healthy with no additives!

In Leslie's words.....I have read your blog for a couple years now and have wanted to help you in raising funds for iPods from Cohen but until recently have not been able to.  A few months I became a sales rep for a direct sales company called Wildtree.  It's all natural food products with no preservatives, MSG, food dyes, additives or high fructose corn syrup. I have noticed that you've written several posts about being interested in healthy/clean eating so I thought my company might be a good match to do a fundraiser and giveaway on your blog.

For iPods: 25% of the sales for this fundraiser will go towards Cohen's iPods :)

To Order: Shop HERE.

Dates: Now - the end of May
