Dear Ministry Partners, I pray that your year has started well. It seems most of this year's AHG Troops have grown exponentially. How very exciting! It is such a blessing to know that more and more girls will be able to enjoy a Christ centered scouting experience because of your sacrifice and their ability to learn about AHG in their community.
A great way for people to learn about AHG and the program that you minister is through a community fundraiser that features an exclusive AHG product of high quality and reasonable cost while promoting the name and ideals of AHG. Imagine your Troop earning much needed funds while the girls sell delectable, gourmet chocolates boxed in beautifully designed foil boxes with the true message of Christmas inscribed upon them. Then imagine the buyer wondering where to buy more and as they turn their empty box over, they learn about the AHG program.
While so many of us just breathed a sigh of relief because the Troop registrations are off to the National Office, it's time to think about funding your Troop in a way that may reap eternal benefits. By selling Heart and Soul Candies (a Christian owned and operated enterprise), your girls can share the true meaning of Christmas, through the inspirational message on each beautifully designed box, let others know about the ministry of AHG, and raise much needed funds for your Troop! I truly consider this opportunity a Win, Win, Win!
You will want to contact Heart and Soul as soon as possible. I am personally buying many boxes for hostess gifts and to give to the postman, UPS driver and even my hairdresser. I don't want to forget the Sunday School Teacher, the babysitter and my chiropractor. Oh and my husband is interested in buying a little something for his clients and said it was the perfect price point. I feel this sale might really boost your Troop Treasury. Contact Heart and Soul today to learn more!

Dear AHG ministry partners,
Over the years, many of our Troops have requested help and ideas regarding Troop Fundraising. Although AHG does not officially endorse commercial products, we do have relationships with vendors that are like minded and offer excellent products at reasonable costs. This year we have been blessed to form such a relationship with Heart and Soul Candies. Heart and Soul Candies offers a delectable premium chocolate which is crafted in the USA and sold in beautiful foil gift boxes. These delicious chocolates are perfect gifts for teachers, business associates and hostesses. Not only can you deliver a delicious treat at the holidays, but a reflection of your faith as each box features an inspirational quote and specific information about AHG.
Heart and Soul Candies is owned and operated by believers in Christ who share the mission and vision of American Heritage Girls. They are ministry focused and would like to help you in any way they can with your fundraising efforts this year. Each Troop will have the opportunity to participate in the sale during the fall for Christmas delivery and then again in the winter for Valentine's Day delivery. The price point is right for most customers, $10 a box with a nice profit going to the Troop. Your cost will be $6.25. Shipping is FREE! I am very excited about this opportunity for Troops to raise much needed funds while delivering the Gospel message. What a perfect relationship for AHG when the fundraiser reflects the mission and ideals of our ministry - Heart and Soul Candies does just that! Serving Him, Patti Patti Garibay National Executive Director American Heritage Girls, Inc. |
