Breezy Point Tea Company Supports the Walk for Hope

Well this is the season we have been waiting for - relief from the hot North Carolina weather and the start of the football season. We are so pleased with our progress so far this year and very thankful for everyone's support. Speaking of support, we are really looking forward to our first experience being part of a charitable event.

Breezy Point Tea Company has formed a team to walk in the Walk for Hope on Sunday, October 11th. Mental illness has affected those that we know and love in many ways and I’m sure you know someone who has been affected as well. We plan to join thousands of others who will participate in the 21st Annual Thad and Alice Eure Walk for Hope. The Walk for Hope is 10k walk that raises funds to promote scientific research into the causes, cures and to discover more effective treatment of mental illness. These illnesses include but are not limited to schizophrenia, anorexia, Alzheimer’s disease, depression, bipolar disorders, autism, anxiety disorders, post-partum depression, and social phobias. It is estimated that one in four people are affected by some type of mental illness and we feel that it is important to help provide funding for this cause.

We are excited to announce that those who make a contribution to our team will be entered to win a great gift basket from Breezy Point Tea Company! Any amount will help this worthy cause. Making a contribution now is easy - just click on this link and use our team captain's walker code of "mmacnabb": http://www.walkforhope.com/donate.aspx?TheCode=mmacnabb
