A fabulous unicorn loving friend very kindly suggested that some folks might not appreciate the nod towards Georgia Football with the red color scheme (though that's not what we had in mind when the shirt was coming together!! but it's very true that we like our Georgia Bulldogs!) ...so in an effort to please all of you who happen not to be fans of our favorite team, here's a blue option. (and it's ok if you just prefer blue...we won't assume anything about your affinity to any particular team).
Read all the way to the bottom for a chance to get a free t-shirt. (how's that for marketing?!)
Things to know:
- Each shirt costs $22 (some sizes cost more than others - sizes range from youth small to adult 3XL...but for simplicity's sake, we're selling them for $22 each)
- You are absolutely welcome to add an additional donation on top of the cost of the shirt - but please know that buying a shirt is enough!! (or if you don't want a shirt, the gift of a donation would be so very generous! you can use the paypal link below)
- If we are going to ship it to you (which we'd be happy to do!), adding $3 in the US and $10 for international addresses to your total will greatly help us out!
To order: (I think this may be the most important part of the whole post...)("if you don't hear anything else today, hear this...")
- email me at diannacash@yahoo.com or message me (on facebook, instagram or at 706/577-4393) and tell me
- red or blue print
- size
- how you plan to pay
- your email address
To pay:
- You can give us the money in person (just make sure I have your order and don't just take your money!)(you can even ask if I've got it written down somewhere!)
- You may send a check/money order to our home address (I think money orders are fancy! so if you want to be fancy, get that money order!) - 10311 Whitesville Road Fortson, GA 31808
- You may also pay through this link: paypal.me/cashfamilyadoption
- You are amazing for even considering buying a shirt and supporting our family in this way.
- We will take orders until August 5. Once all of our orders are in, it will take a couple of weeks for the shirts to arrive and we will do our best to deliver/ship them as quickly as possible.
- If there is enough interest, we can place a second order - but that is not a certainty. Don't delay. Buy today....or something like that. :)
- The t-shirt company told us that "...soft shirts are a tad less generous of a fit than a normal t-shirt. They’re a nicer, softer t-shirt, but if people are between two sizes I would definitely suggest choosing the larger!"
Alright, you must be quite dedicated to us if you are still reading this (thank you)...much like restaurants and stores often have a rewards program for their most loyal customers, we'd like to offer a reward to any of you willing to partner with us in these t-shirt sales. If you can sell 10 or more shirts, we'd love to give you your shirt for free...and by sell I mean, contact your people (in person, on facebook, however), get their information/sizes/etc. and money (unless they pay with paypal), get that information/money to me and then be willing to deliver their shirts once the order is in (I'll get their shirts to you!). I had this idea in the middle of the night...I felt like it might be a good one...but if it's terrible, just ignore it. If you're interested in doing this, email or message me! (I'm hoping for about 10 folks willing to do this!! Aunt Amy...here's looking at you!)
Another idea I just had that I'm going to run with - my hope is that we sell at least 75 of each shirt (that number allows us to get the lowest possible price and the monetary goal we are hoping to reach was calculated using that price). As an act of worship, Nick and I would like to give red print t-shirt #76 and blue print t-shirt #76 away for free.
Why sell these shirts? Why ask you to buy a shirt?
Because of this amazingly precious and beautiful little girl named Zoe Grace that God has trusted us with. Because we need your prayers and we hope your shirt will be a reminder to pray for Zoe and the rest of the Cash family and to also pray for her birthmom, Melinda. Because we hope your shirt will spark questions and inspire conversations. Because we hope it will be a useful tool in God's kingdom..and maybe even lead others to adopt (I'm asking alot of these t-shirts! I do believe they are up to the challenge.)
And because t-shirts are always a good idea.
May this little girl lying on the blanket her birth mother made with love, care and attention always know that she is treasured, wanted, cared for, and loved.
Full disclosure. This feels overwhelming. The thought of handling 150 t-shirt orders makes me tremble a bit...but we're excited about these shirts and excited about having others on this journey with us. So the emails and orders and payments and arrangements will all be worth it. We welcome your prayers for a peaceful and smooth process!
Surely there will be more to come.
