Last week I wrote about a Lady that I was talking to who told me about a Woman who was in a domestic violence shelter that was fighting breast cancer. I just could not stop thinking about it. She was also telling me about how anytime she did a “home party” of any sort she used her hostess benefits to buy things for this shelter. I thought it was a brilliant idea and we talked about what we could do to make a difference at this shelter and other shelters. October is breast cancer awareness month and I think it is a perfect time to show some love to the Women, for whatever reason, are living in woman’s shelters and for those battling breast cancer.

With the help of a few Scentsy consultants ( who are all MyLitter readers! ) we have set up some online Scentsy parties with 100% of the hostess benefits going to purchase Scentsy items for these shelters to bring in a little warmth and love from MyLitter Readers!

Plus, as a MyLitter reader you will get to help pick out the warmers and scents that we get to donate by voting after the parties have closed!

As the Holiday season is coming up this would be a great time to get a jump start on a few Christmas Gifts! I gave a few of these away last year for Christmas and they were a HUGE hit! I personally LOVE Scentsy and am completely addicted to it, plus it is safe to have around with little kids because there is no open flame or soot.

**Don’t forget there are kids living in the shelters as well, the Scentsy Buddies are a something that you can donate directly if you want to do something like that. “Snuggle your Buddy for a great night’s sleep or make outings fun when you bring a playful friend along. The Scentsy Buddy is the perfect cuddly companion—and there for you no matter what.”

How they work: Using your new Scentsy warmer is simple! Our authentic Scentsy warmers use a low-watt bulb to slowly melt specially formulated wax. With no flame, smoke, or soot, the Scentsy wickless candle system is a safe way to enjoy Scentsy Fragrances.

When I have purchased Scentsy products in the past, I usually buy the “Combine & Save” Deals. You get a few different products and some of the scented wax and then I split them up to make a few different gifts. I did this last year for my secret santa’s at work and for my SIL and Sister.

If you would like to order something and help us make this event a success, you can do so from any one of the following consultants. I am ordering a few gifts and also the Roma warmer for me! If you want to order a warmer to be given to any shelter just email us and we can get you the address to have it sent there, or you can have it sent to me or the consultant who will deliver it with the others.

Bridgette Maier – Accepting orders for readers in the state of Texas! Bridgette is also donating her commission this month to breast cancer awareness, you can save on shipping if you are in the Houston area by picking your items up from Bridgette in The Woodlands. The shelter’s that we are supporting in this area are the Montgomery County Women’s Shelter and one that I am not saying the name of, but we have a MyLitter reader living at in Houston. *** I want to let you know that if you call Bridget and have her enter your order you will get FREE shipping!

Cheryl Hindman – Accepting orders for the Southeast part of the country, Flordia, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana and up the east coast a bit! Any hostess benefits we get from these orders will go to the Hubbard House (for battered woman and their children) in Jacksonville FL. Please remind everyone to mark it to send direct to them or if it is a gift to the person who is being gifted.

Mary Ward – Accepting orders for the East Coast and into the midwest! From Virginia north over to Illinois! This donation will go to the SOS Shelter, in Upstate NY – this group helps battered women. Mary is sweet enough to make sure that this shelter will be getting something no matter the order amount we get!

Jennifer Walton – Accepting orders for the West Coast and anyone else! We need a confirmed location on the west coast from any readers who know of a womans shelter or other woman’s service to send any donations to, if you can help please email me! On Jennifer’s site on the right side you can see where the Mylitter party is, click on “buy from this party” so that we can get credit!
