Hi,
My name is Janet McCarthy.
A little bit about us: we live in Miami and experienced both Hurricane
Andrew AND Wilma. Therefore we know giving money is important. However,
we wanted to touch people on a personal level, too. My daughter,
Jaiden who is 5 1/2 sleeps with her Princess sleeping bag on top
of her bed. She loves it. Then we thought as Hurricane Katrina
victims are moving from place to place, wouldn't it be great if
they could carry their own personal sleeping bag with them. There's
a good possibility that this will make them feel much more comfortable
in a strange surrounding. This is how we came up with the Katrina
Sleeping Bags idea. If you would like to add a personal message
in the sleeping bag, please do. Let's show them we care.
You can personally contact me at 1-800-522-2114 x 8046
or email me at
if necessary. |
