In this season of engagements, bridal parties and of course, letterpress wedding invitations, it is rare that our attention here at Invitations by Ajalon would be focused on anything but these exciting affairs.
But something has happened in the international arena that we cannot ignore. A national disaster in Haiti caused by a series of massive earthquakes necessitates our help in the relief efforts.
While we have made personal donations to several charities, we’d like to take it one step further. That is why we are proud to announce that during this wedding season we will be donating 100% of the price of every letterpress wedding invitation sample package ordered from us to Doctors Without Borders.
Doctors Without Borders is an international medical humanitarian organization created by doctors and journalists in France in 1971. Today, Doctors Without Borders provides aid in nearly 60 countries to people whose survival is threatened by violence, neglect, or catastrophe, primarily due to armed conflict, epidemics, malnutrition, exclusion from health care, or natural disasters.
While each individual gesture may seem small ($10), combined together our efforts can and will make a difference for the people in Haiti. There are countless charities that are tirelessly working in Haiti to bring much needed food, water and medical supplies to the displaced peoples. While on the home front the best thing we can do to support in this relief effort is to give donations and, if you are so inclined, to pray for the victims of this tragedy.
From everyone here at Invitations by Ajalon we would like to thank all the relief workers in Haiti. We are sending our support in all the ways we can, so that these workers are better able to serve the communities they are working in.
