FROYO, Fashion, & Friends






We are really excited to announce that the first fundraiser to help us provide Ella with a modified house will be hosted by Skinny Sweet Frozen Yogurt in Glen Ellyn, IL (see address below).

From 12:00 pm - 9:00 pm on Saturday, October 12th Skinny Sweet will donate a generous 20% of all sales when customers mention "Ella Casten" while purchasing their delicious treats.

We visited Skinny Sweet twice over the summer.  The place itself is a treat to step into.  The vibrant colors, contemporary decor, and smiling faces all bring the incredibly delicious experience full circle.  It's set up as a self-serve venue.  You only pay for the weight of what you decide is in your bowl; and the choices are endless!

The frozen yogurt flavors can be mixed and matched any way you desire.  From there, you are presented with a vast array of fresh fruits, classic toppings, and mouth-watering candies that compliment the creamy yogurt. 
 








Kids absolutely love creating their own dessert treat and have even more fun eating the masterpiece!  

And to top it all off the "bowl of delightful dessert" is easy on your wallet as well as your waist!

If you have yet to try Skinny Sweet Frozen Yogurt (FROYO) please mark your calendars for Oct.12, 2013 from 12-9 pm. 

Come on in, bring the family and your friends, enjoy a wonderful, exhilarating treat and mention Ella's name!

So what else is new on the fundraising front?

  ellaWEAR Party:  Our first ellaWEAR Party will take place on October 22, 2013, followed by a November 5th & 22nd party!!  New jewelry has been ordered and plans for  great get-togethers are in the works.   

This type of fundraiser is a really easy way to help raise money for Ella while also providing yourself with free jewelry.  In addition, your friends will enjoy a fun social gathering coupled with beautiful jewelry to purchase for themselves as well as for gifts.

The conceptual aspects of the ellaWEAR Party that we are most proud of are:
  • We feel highly connected to the fundraising part of our caring for Ella as proceeds from every ellaWEAR Party will be directly donated to the "new house" fund.
  • We are taking our logo to its promise:  simply stylish. simply jewelry.  Everything about the ellaWEAR Party is simple...no pressure, no quotas, no problem!!
Please consider an ellaWEAR Party for you and your friends!

Music Fest:

A friend has stepped forward asking us if he could put together a "music fest" for Ella.  What a great idea!!  

This is in the early stages of development but when we spoke last he had already contacted several bands and they agreed to participate!  He said he is now in the process of finding a venue.  His thoughts are to have the fundraiser event in the Spring of 2014.  We are so grateful.
