Happy Holidays everyone! Thank you so much for your continued support and contributions to PPA Charities. We are all looking forward to Imaging USA 2009 in Phoenix, Arizona. As usual we will kick off the convention with a party and a fabulous auction. This year should prove to be even more amazing with the addition of so many fabulous speakers not to mention the lovely and talented Anne Geddes. We plan to not only auction off VIP seating for this event but will offer many, many other awesome items.
We are all excited and anxious about all of the changes that we are witnessing in our lives. It has been a very interesting year for so many of us. The climate is changing not just outside, but also in our businesses, our country and our world. Change! Change! Change! It has become the buzzword for 2008/2009 and I do believe that change is good. However, as we get so caught up, wrapped up and consumed with all of the changes in the stock market, gas prices, political offices, etc., there are thousands and thousands of children in this world that will not witness any of these changes, not care about any of these changes, and not enjoy the long term benefits that many of these changes will inevitably bring.
At PPA Charities, it is always our mission and responsibility to share the message of charitable giving. We are still proudly affiliated with Operation Smile and again this year we will present a check to them at IUSA. This money is only possible through your tireless efforts and hard work throughout the year, specifically Family Portrait Month. We anticipate that our BIG check may not be quite as big this year, however, it will enable Operation Smile to CHANGE so many children's lives. For this we are so grateful and indebted to all of you that took your hard earned creation fees, sale proceeds, etc. and joyfully gave it to PPA Charities so that we could pay it forward.
So, in this state of perpetual change, please remember that simple check, donation and contribution will create more change than we could ever imagine. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for helping us make these type of changes, change these children's lives, change the map of their futures. Thank you and bless you.
Peace, Love and Joy,
Mary Mary Fisk-Taylor
President, PPA Charities
