Dear Parents and Friends of DMS,

I have a little "holiday shopping tip" for you that I hope you will take
advantage of if you do any of your bargain hunting and shopping online...

As you know by now, Devine Middle School is a committed supporter of The
Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, through sponsoring Team in Training events
as well as the annual spring Pennies for Patients drive, our students have
raised well over $8000 in the past four to five years.

An easy way to help this organization (or any other cause you care
about--for there are many choices available) is through a new
Yahoo!-powered search engine and online shopping mall called
GoodSearch.com. GoodSearch will make a donation to your favorite charity
every time you search the internet and every time you purchase something
at one of their partner merchants (including Target, Gap, ebay, Macy’s,
BestBuy, Barnes & Noble and hundreds more)! It doesn't cost you a thing —
the money comes from the advertisers and the stores. 

The more people who use this site, the more money will go to those in
need. So please spread the word to your friends and family.  (Forward this
email along if you'd like.)

Here's the web site — http://www.goodsearch.com. You can also read about
GoodSearch in the NY Times, Oprah Magazine, CNN, ABC News and the Wall
Street Journal.  The good they are doing is making news all over the world.

Once on the webpage, enter "Leukemia" in the box next to the question:
"Who do you Goodsearch for?"  A scroll down list will appear.  Choose the
first one:  ".Leukemia and Lymphoma Society - LLS (White Plains, NY)" and
verify your selection.  Then search or SHOP away!  Some stores donate over
5% of the sale back to the organization you support!  (And the donated
amount is listed below each store's icon, so you can be an informed
shopper and know where your dollars are doing the most good.)

Please consider using Goodsearch.com as your regular search engine, and
certainly go there first if you plan to do any Christmas shopping online
during holidays.  Together, WE, Devine Middle School and YOU, can make a
difference in the fight against all blood cancers.  Thank you very much
for your support!

Happy Holidays,

Lori L. Marek
