Here’s the winner of our $500 Referral Reward yearly award
Our Referral Reward Program is our way of saying “thanks” when our existing clients generously refer new clients to our shop. Every time a new client comes in we ask how they heard about us, and when they give us a specific person we can track down we call that person and make a donation to the non-profit group of their choice. Since 2014 we’ve been privileged to donate 
almost $16,000, including our quarterly and yearly awards. It’s those yearly awards that brings us here today… your votes are in, and we’re pleased and proud to announce that the winner of our 2016 Yearly Award and recipient of $500 is “La La Land”. No, wait, there’s been a mix-up. It’s actually…
Planned Parenthood of the Columbia/Willamette
You may remember reading about Planned Parenthood in these pages not very long ago; it was just in November that they won $250 and our third Quarterly award. Well, it seems that for some unknown reason Planned Parenthood’s popularity is only growing these days. While their November win was a squeaker, they won this award with twice the votes of their nearest competitor. In their last article we told you about the history of the organization from the Planned Parenthood website. This time we’ll share some articles from other sources about their services, funding, and more. Congratulations Planned Parenthood once again, and we’re sure they’ll put the $500 to good use!
