All Month: Creative Memories Online Fundraiser (see below for
copy of previous email about this)

CREATIVE MEMORIES
For those of you who know our son, Riden, you know that he is an
adorable, happy little boy. If you didn't know any different, you
wouldn't suspect that he was born with Prader-Willi Syndrome. As a
result, one day, as soon as tomorrow, as late as age 10, Riden may
start feeling the insatiable hunger that is the hallmark
characteristic of Prader-Willi Syndrome. This intense hunger does not
go away and there is no cure. It prevents those with it from having a
normal life, as they must be monitored 24/7.

We are optimistic that a cure for the hunger can be found and raising
money for research is the key. Farrah Gage Sinclair, Riden's
Godmother, is a Creative Memories Consultant and has been so gracious
and will donate 100% of her profits from her online sales for the
entire month of September to the Prader-Willi Syndrome Association's
Research Fund.

Please visit her website
http://www.mycmsite.com/sites/farrahsinclair/catalog-index to plan
out your purchases! Creative Memories offers superior-quality photo
organizing, albums and scrapbooking supplies. All are guaranteed
photo safe.

Purchasing ideas:

*Organize and edit your photos digitally with the Memory Manager
software.
* Keep your photos safe and organized in the Power Sort photo safe box
* Give archival-quality photo albums as gifts (you'll receive Sept.
orders in time for Christmas!) Ask Farrah for ideas!
* Get the supplies you need to create the photo album you have been
meaning to put together.....everyone has a story to tell and the best
way is through a Creative Memories photo album.

We'll send you a reminder before the fundraiser starts on September
1. In the meantime, feel free to ask Jessica or Farrah any questions.
And, please forward along to friends!
