One Week "Left" To Help the "Left
Behind"
We are happy to report that
Holden Village has
re-opened! But this means
the work has just began as
they transition out of
hosting fire fighters and into
hosting retreats again.
Help us help Holden Village.
Since announcing that $4.00
from each pair of
Left
Behind shorts or sweatpants
sold will be donated to
Holden Village over 40 pairs
have been sold. Help us
reach 100 pairs by the end
of the week.
Below is the article
that we ran on September
7th:
On August 5,
2007 a wild fire was reported near Domke
Lake, close to Holden Village in Chelan,
Washington. As a result of this wild
fire, a level 3 evacuation was issued
and Holden Village was closed until
further notice. A few staff members
have remained at Holden Village to
monitor the situation and assist those
who are fighting this fire. Those staff
members have been referred to as "The
Left Behind" As a result of this
evacuation, Holden Village is losing out
on several weeks of income and program
not to mention the incredible work that
will need to be done to re-open once the
evacuation is over.
For the rest of September, for every
pair of
Left Behind shorts or sweatpants
that we sell, we will be donating $4.00
to Holden Village. For more information
