Candle Fundraiser

We are starting to get our fundraisers in full gear. Please help support Angela. She is in need of a heart transplant and with that comes BILLS that Insurance doesn't all pay for before and after Transplant. When this is all said and done, it will be over 1 million dollars. Thank you Jesus that, that won't be all out of pocket cost. The money that will be donated to Angie for her medical bills will be held with an organization called COTA (Children’s Organ Transplant Association). They will only pay out the money if it is for a medical need. They also will give Angie Grants as she reaches and raises certain goals. How awesome is that! COTA is a NON-PROFIT organization!

The
Children’s Organ Transplant Association helps children and young adults who need or have had a life-saving transplant by providing fundraising assistance and family support. Learn more about COTA and their work to ensure that no child or young adult is denied a transplant or excluded from a transplant waiting list due to lack of funds. To read more and learn about this great organization please just click on the name COTA.

We will be selling
Blush Candle's starting June 1st. 50% of the proceeds will be donated to Angie! That is so awesome! Please let your house get super stinky then June 1st contact Melissa or Aimee for some great smelling candles. If you live in AZ, I would be happy to deliver them to you! Other states anywhere out-of-state I believe that we can accept Paypal and ship candles for an additional fee. That I am still looking into. Email me if you are interested and I can let you know and give you an estimate, if we can. To learn more about Blush Candle's you can click on the name.

To get a hold of me for any questions you have, please leave a comment for me on Angela's Blog, or email me at
fadinge@yahoo.com.

Thank you everyone for all the prayers and encouraging words. Please keep them coming. They mean a lot to Angela and the family.

--------------------UPDATE ON CANDLE'S BELOW-----------------------

First of all THANK YOU VALERIE for all your help with the candles. Valerie is the consultant for the
Blush candles. She has ROCKED! Doing much more than what she should. Thank you for helping raise money for this sweet girl, Angie.

I got an answer on Shipping for Orders that are made out of state of AZ. YES! We can!! Just email us your name, shipping address, order, and e-mail address.I will give the info to the Valerie and she will contact you and send you an invoice via Paypal with the total including shipping cost (won't charge anything extra). The shipping cost will depend on how many candles and your shipping zip code. She will then ship the candles to you after the end of the fundraiser. She will make sure that Angie gets the 50% of the sale.

Here will be the Scents that you will be able to choose from for Angela's Fundraiser. There are 12 summer scents.

Aloha, Blackberry Vanilla, Clean Linen, Lavender & Sage, Mandarin & Mango, Orange Blossom, Pineapple Vanilla, Pomegranate, Sweet Pea, Snickerdoodle Cookie, Sun & Sea, and Vanilla Bean.

When we get closer to the date...I will post prices. Here is a little bit about what to expect with
BLUSH CANDLES........

Every
Blush candle is hand-poured using the finest ingredients and time-tested manufacturing techniques. Smooth, creamy waxes are infused with rich fragrance oils to make our extraordinarily scented candles. The result is a candle that disperses intense aroma throughout an entire space while lit, and continues to smell remarkable long after the candle is extinguished.

If you're like me, you've probably had to make some changes because of the economy. We've definitely been spending more time at home - so I think it's important to make your home as comforting and relaxing as possible.
Blush Candles can make your home feel like a spa retreat at an extremely affordable price.

Blush Candles are perfect hostess gifts and teacher presents. They are also wonderful products for Realtors. In fact, Valerie first discovered Blush Candles when her realtor brought one over for her open house. She loved the way the aroma lingered even hours after everyone had left!

Thank You for your time!! Your prayers!! Your support!! The Verses! Encouraging Words!!

  4. To just make donations..yes. This is the thing. Angela's Grandpa setup a paypal account for her.

    I was going to put that link on here so that people could make donations if they wanted too.

    The thing is. With COTA. You can not have any other websites (meaning this blog may have to end) and other accouns set up.

    When we get all set up with COTA there will be another website for Angie with updates etc. On there you will be able to donate.

    Now and in the future, if you are donating with a check, make the check out to COTA. In the note memo are, put Angela Olivas.

    So, yes, you can donate now. But it will have to be check or cash, until we are able to get other stuff set up.

    I can just add your check to the check that we will be sending to COTA with the candle donation portion.

    Thank you for the great question!

  5. Actually, if you want to use the donation as a tax deduction, it would be better to send it right to COTA. You would make it out to "COTA" and then put "Angela Olivas" in the memo line. Their address is 2501 COTA Dr., Bloomington IN 47403. Thank you all so much!
