Hello there, shoppers!
Want to do something that’ll make you feel far better than shopping sales this Veterans Day? Help Operation Sand Flea, chosen by Oprah as the best philanthropy program in the beauty biz, and help our troops take care of their skin this 11-11-11. Operation Sand Flea is a nonprofit donation campaign that sends care packages of the skin saver Combat-Ready Balm from Skincando Inc. to troops in need in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Make a small donation to Operation Sand Flea, and Skincando will pay for the shipping expense and include a personalized Thank You note to a soldier serving our country. If you have a family member serving overseas, Skincando will even send a Care Kit directly to them.
Visit skincando.com/donations or call Skincando at 202-215-8991 to make a donation.
Over 6,500 Operation Sand Flea Care Kits have been sent to date. The company’s goal is to send another 500 by 11-11-11.
Happy shopping! Let’s show our troops how much we care.
