Pampered Chef Fundraiser
After 2 years of doing this as a fundraiser for my own Walk MS team, I decided that it would better benefit finding a cure for MS if I were to sign up to sell Pampered Chef to help others use this as a fundraiser. You will be able to earn at least 20% of your total sales towards your team fundraising. Do a book show, or a "Party at Home." It's a great time with great food, all for a great cause!<
If you are interested, please do not hesitate to call. But more importantly, THANK YOU for helping to find a cure for the disease that affects so many others like my sister!

We own a 2-bedroom vacation condo in St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands. We named it "Dianna's Fancy" after a friend of ours battling MS. For everyone who rents the unit at the rack rate and mentions the National MS Society, we will send a check to the chapter of their choice for 20% of the proceeds.

Performance Media Group - Travel4ms.com is a website with a hotel booking engine that will allow consumers to donate 5% of every consumed booking they make on the site to the National MS Society. We are affiliated with hotels.com and sell the same inventory at the same prices as hotels.com.
Once a month, we will send a check to the National MS Society that will equal 5% of the net hotel revenues that had checked out the month before. For example, if John Smith booked 3 nights at the Radisson in Dallas on travel4ms.com for a total cost of $600, and he checked out on March 5th, at the end of April, included in our donation check to the National MS Society would be $30 care of Mr. Smith.
