to fund research into myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) that we are forced to
call CFIDS. The letter sent to the Executive Board of The National CFIDS
Foundation explains it all and is reprinted here:
"First, I would like to let you know that I have recently become an Avon
Representative. Secondly, I have implemented an Avon On Line Event to
benefit The National CFIDS Foundation, Inc. Thirdly, I had also requested the
aid and help of long time friend, Diana Saba, to be my organizer and liaison
to the Executive Board of the NCF. Diana has graciously agreed to accept
my plea.
Diana and I both now would like to enthusiastically invite you to visit our
Avon On Line Event at _http://patricialynch.avonrepresentative.com/_
(http://patricialynch.avonrepresentative.com/) . At the top right hand of my
Avon ePrep web page under: "on Line Events', will fully explain that it is
at no extra cost to your supporters/customers and up to 30% of all
purchases made will be donated to The National CFIDS Foundation by using the
promotional code: MYALGIC17 at checkout and by selecting Direct Delivery.
Diana and I also wanted a way to express our sincere appreciation and
gratitude. We've chosen to accomplish this by giving every 17th customer
benefiting the NCF a token gift in honor of Mr. Thomas M. Hennessey, Jr., a
dedicated staunch activist and founder of the International M.E. Awareness Day
on May 12th, 1992-2009, Dr. A. Melvin Ramsey (London, England) and Dr. B.E.
Holmgren (PA, USA).
The 120-year-old company, Avon, will also ship 'Direct Delivery' to loved
ones serving in the Armed Forces overseas.
All that Diana and I request of you, is to, hopefully, boast of our
Successful Avon fundraiser adventure as far and wide as possible!"
Although we've often had others offer to raise funds to help fund research,
this is the first time that 100% of the proceeds go directly to fund
research with no percentage held back. Help us help you with our "e-party"!
For Better Health,
Gail Kansky
