TAKE A DRINK FOR A SMILE YOU DON’T KNOW

TRADING THIRST FOR SMILES 

Many people know of my involvement and passion for the Invisible Children Project, but out here in Hollywood, you can’t be a ‘one trick’ pony. So while there are many charitable efforts for the many ill-effected groups of folks that live on the planet, my heart and nose for news found a cause both dear to my taste buds and convenience. ‘Changing lives one smile at a time’, AriZona Beverages (teas) www.arizonabev.com support OPERATION SMILE, www.operationsmile.org , an organization that provides corrective surgery to children worldwide suffering from devastating facial deformities. Costing as little as $240 per surgery, AriZona Teas donates 5% of its sales to this worthy endeavor of correcting and perfecting the smiles of small children. The pictures of the ‘before’ and ‘after’ shots show one ‘before’ child devoid of hope, empty, and the ‘after’ shot looking like ‘here comes the ice cream truck’, his ‘hair lip’ repaired. The girl stares into the camera, perhaps seeing her face on the lens and wonders, ‘is that me?’ Visit both websites for more details. Locally here in the Temecula/Murrieta valley and surrounding area, you can pick up AriZona Teas at Albertson’s (and other mass merchants) along with the 99¢ Stores. Believe me when I say that this is the economically tastiest way to support a great cause helping children.
