Please read this and consider. Disclaimer: This is NOT a request for donations.
Many of you know that I joined a friend to train for my first Half-Marathon in Dallas at the end of October... But here is what you don’t know:
About a year ago, my parents’ hometown water source became badly contaminated. The couple hundred folk who lived there had to drive over 30 miles to the nearest grocery to buy bottled water for cooking and drinking, and that went on for MONTHS. That got me thinking about things we take for granted, like clean water.
Did you know that over a billion people here and around the world have NO ACCESS to clean water? I couldn’t believe it. 1,000,000,000 people.. a BILLION?!?!? This is FIXABLE!!!
I need your help! Would you PLEASE consider two easy requests:
1. Loan me your face for twenty minutes, at a time that works for you. Fast, fun, and free, and at your convenience...how easy is that?
2. PLEASE refer to me EVERY adult you know for a courteous OFFER of my services and professionalism with no pressure... every face counts in this race and someone you know might just be looking for my services!
But, April, how does that help provide clean water sources, you ask? I'll tell you!
My October 27 Race supports building clean water wells for the World Vision Clean Water Project:

I will not pressure you to buy a single thing.You will help get the word out just by taking a few minutes for yourself or sharing that time with a friend or two. But here is the coolest part: make a purchase, with satisfaction guarantee, and be excited: I am GIVING ten percent of every sale to the CLEAN WATER PROJECT! My personal goal: FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS before Race Day! You read that right!!!
AND I will publicly display my progess meter here on my blog and facebook so that you can SEE that I am serious and hold me accountable!
THERE IS another HUGE benefit in it for you! :) And I do mean huge!
Book me for twenty minutes and you will be helping a sister community, AND you will be entered into our 2012 Get Beautiful, Give Back campaign. You get fun and answers to the skin and makeup questions that plague you (I am an expert on those!). AND you get entered to win:
* AWARD WINNING powerhouse skin care and mineral makeup,
* $5000 charitable donation to your favorite 501(c)3 charity,
* $2500 Visa Gift Cards, for your own personal shopping spree! I had 3 finalists in the summer/fall contest... and they won BIG prizes!
I hold sessions throughout the week by appointment: in person, on the phone, or by Skype. April@faceinfive.com or 5014706746 Please help me fight for the most basic thing in life: clean water!
