Newtown, CT

I received this email today and would like to share it with everyone....

We have a very special announcement for you today. Please read this entire email!

As you most likely know, Scent-Sations has been donating significant sums of money to various charities over the years. These include Childrens Miracle Network, Make A Wish Foundation, Susan G. Komen For The Cure as well as various military organizations and families.

Our ability to make a difference and donate to various organizations could not happen without all of you.

We are asking for your help once again.

The terrible, senseless tragedy involving the mass murder of both children and adults in Newtown, Connecticut last Friday stunned the nation. Every parent and grandparent, aunt and uncle, brother and sister watched the news in disbelief. The act of a lone, deranged individual turned a tranquil elementary school into a scene out of a horror movie.

This has caused Scent-Sations to once again rise to the occasion and do our best with your help to make a difference.

Over the last few days, we have been working with our suppliers, our printer and several organizations that have been created in Connecticut to make a positive difference through massive action. With your help, we can be a beacon of (candle!) light and hope to those affected.

Starting today we are selling a special “In Memory Of candle to honor the memory of those who had their lives came to an abrupt and tragic end last Friday, December 14, 2012. This 16oz Limited Edition Jar candle shown below features white wax, a spring floral scent and a special label created by Lowell, our printer to honor the victims. The image on the label gives me chills, and I'm sure it will also make an impression on you. The tagline "A brief time in our arms...Forever in our hearts" is a powerful reminder of just how fragile life can be. It chokes me up just thinking about it...but we just don't have to think about it - we can all DO something about it!

All proceeds (approximately $20 per jar) will be donated to the families of those affected. Price of the candle is $24.95 and shipping is a flat $5.95 (US) or $9.95 (Canada) regardless of quantity ordered. Customers may purchase it via your retail site or you can buy it in your Back Office.

Note that there is NO commissionable value on this product and NO retail profits since we are donating ALL the profits and just covering our manufacturing costs. Price is $24.95 both on the retail site and in the Back Office.

Help us get the word out so we can all work to make a difference. This candle is on sale as of today - Wednesday, December 19, 2012. A nationwide press release will be going out tomorrow.

Here it is...

Let us never forget the innocence of the children and the bravery of the adults who gave their lives to protect the children as best they could.

To all of you in the Scent-Sations family, we wish you peace and comfort during these trying times. Our hearts and prayers go out to the victims, their families, relatives and friends.

All the best to you and yours,
