This is actually one of those ideas I wish I had thought of. Two companies are going to be giving out shirts and blankets to encourage and enrich lives–just because. WOW! What a concept.
I was delighted when my friend Kristen Schuerlein called today and told me that she and Lindsay Andreotti will be giving hundreds of blankets and shirts with positive affirmations away this weekend at the Women’s Expo 2008 at the Vancouver Convention Center. If you have time, I hope you will visit them. This sort of outpouring of generosity is needed now more than ever, and it has really touched my heart.
WHO: Affirmagy founder Kristen Schuerlein and Ovel founder Lindsay Andreotti
WHAT: Women’s Expo 2008
WHEN: Nov. 1 and 2, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday
WHERE: Vancouver Convention Center: www.womensexpo.ca
COST: $10 in advance and $12 at the door. Children under 10 are free.
These two courageous women said, “Let’s just give love now,” and it was like a light bulb went on, according to Schuerlein. “Lindsay and I were talking about how important it is having love in our lives, our families and our communities. And then we realized we both had products that could spread love to hundreds of people–fast. We wanted to replace the fear and doubt that are so pervasive these days.”
Affirmagy makes personal-sized blankets, called Affirmawraps, with affirmations and positive messages. Ovel makes wearable affirmations with a line of natural fiber clothing. Together, both companies are committed to sharing the power of affirmations to shape peoples’ attitudes and thoughts, and build an inspiring lifestyle.
