The Down Syndrome Action organization in San Diego is hosting their 4th annual A Ride of Inspiration, Charity Motorcycle Poker Ride & Poker Walk Event on September 29th.
Please be sure to visit their website to learn more about this event and possibly sign up for the ride or walk!
I am excited to be participating as a vendor for this event! If you attend, please be sure to stop by my booth to say hello!
I am even more excited to introduce the “A Ride of Inspiration 2012” necklace!
The necklace can be purchased at the event as well as pre-ordered online. To place your order and have it in time for the event, visit our DS Action Necklaces tab.
You asked and we are answering!
By request, the IDSC for Life “all life is precious” necklace is now customizable.
You now have the option to add an additional disc that will feature the name(s) of your Down Syndrome loved ones. You can even customize it with your Down Syndrome organizations name. OR better yet, what about your Buddy Walk team name? 
The necklaces can be purchased at our Etsy store.
I introduced 2 new Down Syndrome Awareness Designs to the store this week.
My new awareness ribbon stamp came in and you can now request it to accent your piece!
I am really excited about this piece. This piece was created with the Buddy Walk in mind. October is the month for Buddy Walks and this is a great piece to wear on the day of the walk (or any day for that matter!). Gift it to your team members, a parent or for an individual with Down Syndrome.
Psst, I want to let you in on a secret. Have you liked our Facebook page yet? There is a special price on the Step Up For Down Syndrome necklace available only on Facebook.
October is the time for Down Syndrome Buddy Walks around the nation.
If you are like me, you aren’t very comfortable asking friends and family for donations.
I was trying to think of ways to help others raise money for their organization or cause and the thought to use the jewelry for fundraisers came to me!
The fundraiser is not limited to special events or groups. Whether you are an individual raising money for your Buddy Walk team, a PTA raising money for your school or a large organization raising money for your cause, you are welcome to participate!
The only requirement is that you have a legitimate cause. :)
How does it work?
You will receive a unique coupon code that you will distribute to your friends and family for use at Designs by MRS on Etsy.
Designs by MRS will donate 30% of all sales that utilized your coupon code. They will in turn receive free shipping on their order!
At the end of the fundraiser duration, your organization or cause will receive a check (or PayPal payment) in the amount of 30% of total sales (that used your unique coupon code).
What do I do to apply for a fundraiser?
Simply complete the Fundraiser Request Form and I will get back to you within 24-48 hours.
Is there a cost to me (or the organization)?
Absolutely not! :) The only thing I ask for you to utilize is your time advertising your fundraiser.
What will I have to do?
Your job is easy. :) You simply send the unique coupon code to your friends and family. I can provide a template email and flyer templates to you. You can use the flyers for your Facebook profile, page or print them out and distribute them.
