Please join Hands with the "Nestle Very Best in Youth" (NVBIY) during this one-day fundraiser to be held on Friday, September 9, 2005. These 24 phenomenal kids have put together a nation-wide fundraiser to aid the Katrina disaster victims. All funds collected by the NVBIY on this day will be matched by Nestle Corporation and forwarded to the American Red Cross to help the victims of the Katrina disaster. NVBIY recipient, 13 year old David Coons from Simi Valley, is the local contact for this fundraiser. All donations must be made on September 9, 2005 and forwarded to David for matching by Nestle. Act now and double your contribution to help with this national disaster. Contact David at 805-584-1852 or by emailing david@newday.us |

As an update for those interested the one-day fundraiser put on by Nestle and the NVBIY, particularly our local David Coons, was a huge success. Schools in Simi Valley, small businesses and various individuals contributed over $20,000 and counting.
For those of you who may have donated.....
Thank You So Much!!!!!!  |

The donations can come in anytime in the next couple days its just the only donations that Nestle will match are going to be the ones that come in on Friday the 9th. As for a good contact time, the "NVBIY" that is putting this fundraiser on with 23 other kids around the nation is my little brother. I do know that he is at school a good portion of the day so if you would like to reach him you can call him at 805-584-1852 usually between 3pm and 8pm. If that is not a good time for you though you can email him or you can call me, Dani, at 805-297-5763.
I was telling some of my friends about this recently and they wanted to donate to the Red Cross but didn't know what organization to go through. There are a lot of organizations out there that have their fees and such. The Nestle Corp. and the "NVBIY" are holding this non-fee fundraiser meaning everything you donate is going to go to the Red Cross. The only difference in sending it to the Red Cross directly is the donation is going to be matched by Nestle Corp in this fundraiser. This, is going to double your money.
In example: If someone donates $0.50 Nestle will match that and your $0.50 is now a $1.00 and if 15 people donate $0.50 that means an infant will have formula.
If anyone has any questions please feel free to call any of the numbers or email my brother and we will answer the questions for you. |
