 ...   New December 2006 Ty Products
On Saturday, November 25th, I mentioned news of 'rumored' December 2006 Ty releases (consisting of Valentine-themed products).  Looks like the rumors are true, as there are eleven new Beanie Babies (as well as Beanie Buddies, Classics, and more) soon to be announced by Ty, most with a Valentine-theme.  If you just can't wait to see them, and wish to take a peek, you can visit Cindy's Beans website.  Otherwise, just hold on to your patience, as I'm sure they will be introduced on Ty's website VERY soon!

 ...   When You Wish Upon A Star
Sue Owen shares the followin

When You Wish Upon A Star
'Fun' and 'Laughter' Beanies signed by the founder of the charity, Barbara White OBE

Also available are 8 other packages of Star-themed items including Blue Star signed by Sean Bean, several Harrods Beanies and more.

'When You Wish Upon a Star' is a UK charity which fulfils the wishes of children from 2yrs to 16yrs old who have a life threatening or terminal illness.  'A dream is a Wish the heart makes.  As long as our brave children dream a Wish, we can and will, make their dream come true.'   If you have happy healthy children you know what joy it brings to see them smile.

This is something we should never take for granted.  When You Wish Upon A Star deals with those other areas where a sick child's Wish actually becomes a reality in what may sadly be a short life.

The highlight of the Charity's year is to charter 3 planes and take 300 children to Lapland to meet the real Father Christmas......that trip is about to take place and CHERISH wishes everyone the most wonderful time.

Auctions in aid of Cancer Research UK:
Final CHERISH peace 2006 auctions also starting 26th November

 ...   CHERISH Auction Update
Sue Owen shares the following:
New CHERISH auctions will start on Sunday and will include one more THINK PINK auction, thanks to Heather Weinert and Barbara White's amazing efforts! It was through the charity 'When You Wish Upon a Star' that Pink signed the items for CHERISH! Barbara White took 2 special girls to see Pink in concert and to visit her backstage. Because of Heather Weinert's inspired idea, Barbara took along some items and asked Pink to sign them in aid of Cancer Research UK.

There is a special package of PINK items including Aware Beanie, Pink's CD and other items signed by the pop singer PINK at her concert in Nottingham last weekend! This special package would make an amazing addition to anyone's collection - or what a superb gift for a PINK fan!

Click here to view current CHERISH auctions

When You Wish Upon A Star
Next weekend will feature some special auctions in aid of the charity 'When You Wish Upon a Star' - dream making for sick children.
Please help CHERISH to give something back to When You Wish Upon a Star. It is a wonderful charity and you can read more about it on its excellent website:
http://www.whenyouwishuponastar.org.uk/

You may remember that we helped the charity last year. In December the charity sends 300 children to Lapland for a special day with Father Christmas. The charity works hard all year round to raise funds to enable them to grant children who suffer from life threatening illnesses their wish. It is humbling to see the charity rise to the challenge of granting so many and varied wishes throughout the year. As the founder says:

"A dream is a Wish the heart makes. As long as our brave children dream a Wish, we can and will, make their dream come true."

The founder of the charity, Barbara White, was awarded the OBE earlier this year for her tireless efforts to make a difference to these brave and courageous children. Barbara has signed Fun and Laughter Beanies and these will be offered along with items related to the charity, for auction. There will also be some special STAR packages such as Star Beanie signed by Sean Bean, and more.

Thank you for your continued support for CHERISH fundraising!
Best wishes,
Sue
