VG4A’s new fundraiser
Tru-Earth
VG4A has partnered with Tru Earth for a fundraising initiative that is “No Touch”―no effort for anyone on our team. Tru Earth is a Vancouver-based, environment-friendly company that sells laundry eco-strips while keeping plastic bottles out of the landfill. Other products include disinfecting multi-surface cleaning strips, bamboo cutlery, and beeswax food wrap. We believe this is a fundraiser that will interest many of our members, just click the link below
https://fundraising.tru.earth/VG4A
place your order, and it will be delivered to your home. VG4A will receive 20 percent of each sale. We will be raising funds for VG4A and saving the environment with just a click.
There will be a sale on April 22-25 for Earth Day, so that will be a great time to place an order.
Be sure to order through the VG4A link above, not the Tru-Earth website
Save an additional 10% for ONE Day only on National Laundry Day April 15
Use our fundraising link and enter Discount Code LAUNDRY10 at checkout.

We acknowledge with gratitude that for thousands of years the Coast Salish peoples have walked gently on the unceded territories where we now live, work and play. As best as we can, and whenever possible, we move beyond this acknowledgement and engage in our thoughts, speech and actions with efforts to understand, heal, and reconcile past and current injustices.
