❤️Today, 1/29 at 11 AM CT, we are thrilled to launch our newest Color Street Foundation Strip, Because of the Brave!💙 This is a nail strip that would be perfect to carry all year long because it will be a great seller! 🇺🇸
Our focus for the month of February is Military and Veteran Appreciation. For each set of Because of the Brave sold from launch through the month of February, $2 will be donated to the Gary Sinise Foundation, which has supported those who have sacrificed to defend our country: veterans, active duty, first responders, and their families.
To date, the Gary Sinise Foundation has built 70 specially adapted smart homes for severely wounded veterans, 100% mortgage-free. We are honored to announce that our donation from the sales of Because of the Brave will contribute to the funds for a home in San Antonio, Texas for the Foundation’s first female home beneficiary, U.S. Army Sergeant First Class (Ret.) Tara Hutchinson.
While serving in Iraq in 2006, Tara’s truck was struck by an IED. She sustained a traumatic brain injury and third-degree burns on her left leg, and her right leg was amputated above the knee. In an effort to improve the motor and balance skills affected by her brain injury, Tara took up jewelry design, which quickly turned into a passion, and then into a brilliant business.
Currently, Tara’s home is not suitable for daily life in a wheelchair, nor is it a comfortable work environment for her home-based business. With your help, the Color Street Foundation is thrilled to make a contribution that will help build a new home for Tara, specifically designed for her unique needs.
Because of the Brave will be available for purchase today, 1/29, at 11 AM CT. Thank you for your phenomenal support!
