As we welcome Spring we welcome a new era of our WHO Foundation with the new Heart-to-Heart Connect with WHO Blog! Thank you for being part of this- you are helping turn the page to the next chapter of our philanthropy by reading this Blog, giving your feedback and sharing more ideas that we can pass onto everyone in the BC field! This Foundation is only as strong as its members!
It has been so fun connecting with many of you as you share your creative fundraiser ideas and all the different ways you support WHO at your monthly unit Rally. I'm excited we now have a way to share all that is going on in "WHOland" with everyone in BeautiControl. I need your help to bring “WHOland” to life so please send in your ideas, past successful events and even videos of your team at work for WHO and we will select several and post them on the blog! I want everyone in "WHOland" to actually see the incredible stories you have shared!
You will find a new Blog posting every Friday with the latest WHO news, promotions, ideas and ways to get involved!
Hey, be sure to become a fan on Facebook! Yes that's right- WHO is now on Facebook. What an easy way to share your BC business with your Facebook group by explaining what WHO is about and why you are involved. Make them curious and ask questions...it just might lead to a spa booking!!
Sweet 16 and GROWING Strong!
This year marks the 16th anniversary of the WHO Foundation and that's why our goal is to raise $616,000 this year! As of March 28 we are at $307,000. If you are a numbers person you'll like this breakdown. If each Director unit raised just $70 a month between now and Celebration conference in July we would reach our goal!
Do you know that each time you buy the designated WHO products you are helping reach our goal and contributing to the WHO? Here are some products that benefit WHO:
YCell Block-C® P.M.
YBC SPA Detox products
YW.H.O. Loves You Lip Color
YColor of Confidence Lip Color
Why not promote this group of products at your Spas as the "Products with Heart" and explain how when they shop it's supporting this awesome philanthropy. Remember, "it feels good to give" so pass that feeling on to your clients by letting them know what BC products make a difference beyond skin deep!
Help us reach our goal this year so that we have more to give and more to feel good about! You have such great ideas and energy when it comes to the topic of raising money. Yes, every dollar counts!
Sharing Success with WHO in April
Your April Success Meeting packet has a darling sheet with the Top 5 Reasons to Donate to WHO. Consider having your WHO unit chairperson do a funny short skit or David Lettermen type count down with this top 5 list to increase awareness in a light hearted way.
Also, every Spa Girl loves a good sale and a clever Mother's Day gift. I think a mother's heart would be touched to receive the new Beauty Body Lotion and Fragrance set. The little bag is too cute plus you won't have to worry about wrapping it! Emphasize that a portion of the proceeds ($2 from each set to be exact) goes to the WHO Foundation!
On Your Radar
It's all about the jewelry! Everyone needs the WHO customized 'I Pledge to the WHO Foundation' bracelet to wear to Spas, all BC events and out in the community. This colorful eye catching bracelet is a great conversation starter. The only way to get one is by signing up for the WHO Pledge Commitment program! Let me hear your stories about what kind of conversations started from wearing your bracelet and how it impacted your business! As of 4/2/10 we have 1,811 WHO Pledge Commitment participants... help spread the word and let's watch this number grow!
"Speak Peak This Week"
Directors, you can be watching for a short and sweet survey coming your way regarding the WHO Foundation. Your honest input is more valuable then you realize so please take a few minutes to give us your thoughts and reactions. Remember, this is YOUR Foundation and you have a voice! We want to hear from you!
Thank you for becoming a regular reader of our WHO Blog. Together, we can share WHO with the world and make such a huge impact on the lives of women, children and families in need all across our great nation. Have an incredible Easter Weekend and don’t forget to visit us back here next Friday!
