Press Release from Quinnipiac Bank.

We thought all our supporters would like to see the article written in the Hamden Journal about our recent collaboration with Quinnipiac Bank.   Our community loves good press!

Coat Distribution Request & Surplus.

On January 23rd, we had another successful cold weather items distribution at CCA.  Thank you to Judy Rich, who allowed us to use their community space.  Another thank you to our new friends at Quinnipiac Bank who tirelessly collected many coats.  And of course, last but never least, all the individuals who volunteered to collect, make, donate or assist in setup.

It did come to our attention that there are many requests for men's coats.  An overwhelming population is in need.  Please friends, if you have gently used and clean men's coats only; send us an email.

In addition, we are storing surplus of the childrens'/womens' coats.  Again, if someone is in need; please contact us.

Thank you.

Introduction to Robyn Porter, Independent Consultant.

One of our continuing blog features is to highlight and support local businesses and entrepreneurs.

  This month, we are pleased to introduce Robyn Porter, Independent Consultant for Traci Lynn Fashion Jewelry.

Hello, my name is Robyn Porter and I am an independent consultant for Traci Lynn Fashion Jewelry operating in New Haven, CT.  I came to this business as a divorcee seeking the opportunity to supplement my income while putting my daughter through college and paying off my student loans.  However, I never realized that as a direct seller my jewelry business would yield such fun and dividends!  Specifically, I have enjoyed the freedom of being my own boss, setting my own hours, and the unlimited income potential.

Not to mention, the pleasure of meeting new people and making new friends while creating networking opportunities.  So, if you would like to share in this wonderful and prosperous opportunity to create the life you deserve; please contact me for more information.  If not, please feel free to pass my information onto someone who may be interested.  Finally, yet importantly, please take a moment to view our fashionably distinct jewelry and to place an order.

Traci Lynn Fashion Jewelry sells its high quality, affordable fashion jewelry through special events, fundraisers, personal shopping, home, office and catalog shows.  The jewelry is not only fashionably distinct, but is made of the finest quality materials.  We use Cubic zirconium, Rhodium plating, and Austrian crystals so the jewelry is not only budget friendly, but breathtaking and beautiful!

If you want to start your own business, earn free jewelry or simply update yours or a loved one's wardrobe-Traci Lynn Fashion Jewelry is for you.  "People represent our brand because they love our style!"  We are also proud members of the Direct Selling Association (DSA).

Coat Distribution A Success.

Last week we had a successful coat distribution for our families.  What a great way to wrap up a year full of community activities!

We are in the process of planning another coat collection/distribution during January.  Please contact us here if you have any cold weather items to donate.  Specifically, looking for hats, gloves, scarves, and kids coats or jackets (sizes 7-16).  Of course, any donations are much appreciated.  These specifics were direct requests from families in need.

Please search your closets for donations and pass the word!

Thank you.
