Tara Whitney, owner of Seacoast Power Yoga, comments “there are children in our community that are hungry. It’s heartbreaking. End 68 Hour of Hunger is filing a great need and I’m so pleased that we have an opportunity to support them and the children here in the Exeter area that need our support”. The mission of End 68 Hours of Hunger is to meet the need for food that some local children experience between the 68 hours between the free lunch they receive in school of Friday afternoon and the free breakfast they receive in school on Monday morning. The organization is strictly volunteer based and 100% of every dollar contributed goes directly to purchase food, which is packed in backpacks and delivered to participating schools each week. For more information contact Kim Army at Exeter@end68hoursofhunger.org.

The fund raising event will include Ava Anderson Cosmetics demonstrations.  A portion of the sale of all cosmetics will go to End 68 Hours of Hunger in the Rollinsford program, our newest program which started this week with 9 children.

Ava Anderson cosmetics contain NO harmful chemicals.  No synthetic fragrances of dyes, no parabens or PEG’s, no Gylcol, Sodium Laureth Sulfate, no Petroleum by products, and are developed with NO animal testing.  They were developed after Ava Anderson saw a news report documenting the known carcinogens, neurotoxins and endocrine disruptors in the blood and urine of teens, and she discovered that the products she and her friends were using were dangerous.
