2009 Needs Thread Success and Well Wishes

Hello everyone, We here at HOST hope that every one's holidays have been great and that all those who needed help found what they needed to make it that way.
From the last post on the blog till now there have been many others who have been helped and have helped others in need. A lot of people prefer to keep out of the "limelight" but we want to acknowledge them in this way by giving our thanks and best wishes to all of them.
The needs thread this year has been a great help and has brought a lot of new friends into the fold. We would like to also say "Welcome" to all the new members and friends who have found us this year.
The needs thread http://www.etsy.com/forums_thread.php?thread_id=6350534&page=1 will continue for those who still need last minute gifts or holiday help until Jan 6, 2010 three kings days and there after we advise that anyone who still needs help in any way or would like to recommend someone to HOST to post in our monthly team thread in the teams section of the etsy fourms.
Please remember that you DO NOT need to be a member of the HOST team to request for help or recommend someone. We are here to help etsyians in whatever way we can (of course within reason) when they come to us for help. We help in many ways, from helping with sprucing up a person's shop to helping them find organizations in there community that help those in needs.
A helping hand is a loving hand.
We would like to wish everyone a very happy and healthy new year!!!

HELPING OTHERS IS WHAT WE DO!

Hello dear readers!

HOST is now up and running - thanks to some greatly appreciated help from the beautiful Etsy community. Artists, all with a sense of community that expands to helping when others need a boost!


HOST has used the donations it has received to help many fellow Etsians with small needs but there is one Etsian who needs a little more than we are able to provide, so here is how YOU can help:

Log into
http://www.modestneeds.org/ (it's easy :)
You can then load "points" into your account; 1 point = $1.00

Our fellow Etsian is a struggling student who is between grants and she needs help with paying her rent. Haven't we all been there a time or two? Just a couple of extra dollars donated by many would make this deserving person's life so much better. Here is her "Modest Needs" link:

Any help you can offer is so gratefully received - thank you all so much!

Brenda
