On March 11, 2011, Japan experienced one of the most deadly and devastating natural disasters in history, as an earthquake and tsunami ravaged hundreds of thousands of homes, farms, and businesses along the coast of Northeast Japan. As this proud nation mourns the tens of thousands of lives lost, they must also face the overwhelming task of rebuilding what has been destroyed.
I have been inspired by people all around the world who have rallied around Japan to help pick up the pieces. At MonaVie, we immediately joined forces with the American Red Cross to help support disaster relief efforts; and, I have been filled with a great sense of gratitude by those of you within our MonaVie family who have donated so generously of your time and resources to our brothers and sisters in their time of need. Certainly, Japan is not alone on their path to recovery.
Our MonaVie Japan Relief Fund t-shirts provide one more way for you to help make a difference. With three exclusive designs to choose from, and for only US$20 per shirt, 100 percent of the proceeds from your purchase will go directly to With You Japan—a charity organization created by MonaVie IndyCar racer Takuma Sato to provide responsive and proactive care to the thousands of children in Japan affected by the disaster.
In the face of all the work that lies ahead for our neighbors to the East, purchasing a MonaVie Japan Relief Fund t-shirt may seem like a small gesture; but, it’s at times like this that I’m reminded of the story of the young man throwing starfish into the ocean. When asked why he was doing this, he replied that the sun is up, the tide is going out, and, if he didn’t throw them in, the starfish would die.
“But, young man,” came the retort, “don’t you realize that there are miles and miles of beach, and starfish all along it? You can’t possibly make a difference!” The young man simply picked up another starfish and threw it into the sea and said, “It made a difference for that one.”
While visiting Malaysia, Hong Kong, and Taiwan recently, I saw thousands of distributors come to the stage to make contributions to the Japan relief effort. I love the MonaVie family! Each of us has the ability to make a difference in another’s life. Please make the choice to do something significant today by purchasing one or more of these t-shirts. And, again, by doing so, all US$20 will go directly to the relief efforts in Japan.
Sincerely,
