Just have to brag a little...


So, if you follow me on Facebook, you probably know that I started my own business by joining Homecoming Trunk Shows.

I was already super happy to have joined this great company because of the contributions that are given to many different charities, including the Wounded Warrior Project, Navy Marine Corps Relief Society, and the American Heart Association.

This week, though, they have truly gone above and beyond what is expected of a company and have really surprised me with how giving they are.

Here is a little backstory to this whole thing: Another stylist for this company decided to do a fundraiser with her daughter for their school’s Club USA. Club USA is a support group at her daughter’s school for students who have a parent deployed. The stylist had already committed to giving all of her commission toward buying warrior band bracelets (pictured below) and courage necklaces (also pictured below) for the club and had asked guests to also purchase these items if they felt so inclined to do so. Well, let me just say: the stylist did amazing and got a bunch of donations, but our company could not just leave it at that.

With Homecoming Trunk Shows, every party hostess also receives half priced and free items based on the total show sales. Normally, we stylists are not able to purchase the warrior band bracelets because the company donates all of the proceeds already to either the Navy Marine Corps Relief Society or the Wounded Warrior Project, but our home office has decided to let this stylist purchase those items with the credit she has received from her fundraiser.

Did the company stop there? No. Our founder and CEO is also throwing the children a pizza party the day that the items are delivered to them at their school along with a letter that she is writing personally to the children! She is in California and the stylist is in Virginia, but I’m sure if they were in the same state, our CEO would be there handing out the items to the children right along with the stylist!

I had to just take a moment and brag about the great company I have joined. If you are interested in joining, hosting a party or a fundraiser, or ordering any items, please let me know.
