NOTE FROM STACY

Happy New Year to all of you. I hope you enjoyed a wonderful and meaningful holiday season. As I reflect back on some of the things that meant the most to me, I would have to say that working together with several of our Stacy McBride Consultants to help others in need was the most fulfilling. As we did our own parties and even group events we held silent auctions, food and clothing drives and donated portions of our commission to these special causes. It was such a pleasure to have our customers, hostesses and friends help us reach our goals of assisting others.

So, as we move into a new year, after what was a challenging one for many, let's keep that spirit of "paying it forward," offering a hand and making someone elses day an on-going part of every day and not just a seasonal memory.

Here's to a bright 2010! Stacy
