My Thanks for 2008

Thanksgiving has arrived once again and I am thankful for so many things. It’s been an amazing year so far as 2008 starts to wind down and here is what I’m thankful for:

• I will always be gracious for my health
• I’m thankful for great friends and family all around me
• Many thanks to a great business team that is Pure Adapt, Inc.
• I’m extremely thankful for my parents who have been so patient and supportive in so many ways
• I’m thankful for a solid business year even with a slowing economy
• I’m thankful that we can pay ourselves a salary at Pure Adapt
• Thank you to all the charities that I’ve wrote about this year for all the great work they do
• A special thanks to all the people of the armed forces past and present for preserving the freedom that is the United States of America
• I’m also thankful for the goofy turkey stock image I used lol
• Lastly thank you to everyone that reads my blog

Be thankful and be safe this Thanksgiving and enjoy some shopping, lets stimulate the economy if we can. Detailed Image and Tastefully Driven are running some great sales too (I had to plug our stores).

Happy Thanksgiving!!

Commerce with a Conscience 2008

Commerce with a Conscience is a program that we run with Tastefully Driven where we donate 5% of pretax profits to charity. I’m happy to say Commerce with a Conscience has been a success and we made our first donation to the Regional Food Bank of Northeastern New York.

Not only did we make a donation, we also had the pleasure to attend the 19th Annual Auction to benefit the Regional Food Bank on November 5th where we all had the chance to contribute some more to the cause through raffles and auctions. This event was for a great cause and it was a great experience. Check out the picture of the team at the event below.

The Regional Food Bank makes a world of difference in times like this especially during the holidays. Learn how you can help out the Regional Food Bank at www.RegionalFoodBank.net.

We all work hard to grow the business but we also look forward to growing Commerce with a Conscience to make our contribution to our community.
