I just wanted to tell everyone I know, about fund raisers that are out there for the Gomez Family. There are so many opportunities for you to help a very sweet needing family.
First of all, a little about the tragedy. The Gomez family was headed home from spending some quality holiday time with their family. On their way home, another vehicle was headed to them head-on. Eric who was driving his family in their vehicle moved over to try to avoid the colision, but could not move any futer off on the right side of the roadway becuase of a bridge and railing. He then moved to try and avoid the colision, but was not able. The driver of the other vehicle, a Colorado Senator, hit their vehicle head on. This accident injured everyone involved to some extent, however it resulted in life threating brain injury for Brie. Now, Brie was also 30 weeks pregnant. She and Eric where expecting their first son. She has 2 precious girls. Doctors where able to save the life of Brie and Eric's baby in an emergency cesearean section, shortly before Brie passed away. The family did choose to donate Brie's organs to save other's lifes! What a wonderful person Brie was!! I am on of the very most lucky to have ever known her! I love you and miss you
dearly. As far as this email, please forward it to everyone you know, to get the news out there.
As for the fundraisers, there are several local fundraisers to meet the needs of those of you who live locally or nearby. There are also options to help this family if you live far away, but ordering lovely products online, where a portion of the sales will benefit the family.
February Fundraisers:
1. This is Tiffany McKinney, Brie's cousin. I am a representative for Silpada Jewelry and I am going to be donating 50% of all proceeds of sales in February to Curren. Also, one lucky person will win a $25 gift certificate for free jewelry just for purchasing! Visit this webpage to see the jewelry, and then contact me to order and to get your name entered for the gift certificate!
My webpage is www.mysilpada.com/tiffany.mckinney
To order, they can contact me at 806-674-7248 or by email at tiffanys_silpada@hotmail.com
2. A friend wanted to help, and she is donating all her profits on Scentsy orders if they use this website through February 14. https://lainecopeland.scentsy.us/Buy?partyId=23565970. Now I realize you may have a scentsy consultant, but it won't hurt to make a one time order to honor this family!
3. Also, we are having Blue Sky night on February 28 from 11AM-9PM. They will donate proceeds to Curren if customers mention him. An update about the Blue Sky fundraiser:
Blue Sky has extended the hours from 11am to 9pm on February 28th(same day) to accomodate the many people ready to come out and support Curren and the Gomez family.
4. Alicia Mincey is a consultant for Thirty-One gifts andx is donating 50% of her income in February to the Curren Gomez fund.

If anyone wants to host a home or catalog party or have Alicia set up at an event in February, all of those orders will also go towards the fundraiser!
Alicia says, "I'm praying for a huge donation!!!"

5. This is one I don't understand much, but...I just wanted to let you know that the PBS team at Tascosa is putting up some wonderful fundraisers in the month of February for Curren and the Gomez family.
We are offering an early release lunch for a $1 towards the end of the month and all proceeds will go towards Curren and the Gomez family. We are also selling links the entire month of February for a $1 and we are going to link them around the school. All proceeds are going towards Curren and the Gomez family.
When Curren does go home, we will have a “link cutting” and whoever’s links get cut, will win gift cards to Rosa’s for dinner!
We hope to raise as much money as Tascosa can for Curren and the family!
