Eivind and Hans of Eivind and Hans Salon of Georgetown with Carolyn Keller

EBeauty was a sponsor at this years Relay for Life at Georgetown University. As a sponsor, EBeauty distributed bottled water and hand towels to walkers throughout the night. Eivind and Hans were also there cutting hair for anyone who wanted to donate to cancer patients. EBeauty was of course accepting wig donations.

Before the Relay began, Carolyn Keller, President and CEO, said a few words about how EBeauty started and her experiences as a two time survivor.

This year’s Georgetown University’s Relay for Life raised over $157,000 with the top team Hoya Blue raising over $12,000. The event had a $400,000 goal. Since 2006, Georgetown has raised over $1.5 million for the American Cancer Society.

What exactly is Relay? Relay for Life is an overnight event in which teams of people take turns walking around a track in efforts to raise awareness and donations for the American Cancer Society.

The idea behind the Relay for Life is that “One person can make a difference.” Here’s a little back story to Relay for Life. In the mid-1980‘s, Dr. Gordy Platt, with a desire to support his cancer patients, circled a track in Tacoma for 24 hours. In just those 24 hours, Dr. Platt raised $27,000 to fight cancer. The success of this event inspired the first Relay for Life in 1986.

Why do Hoyas relay? Hoyas relay for loved ones. Hoyas relay for survivors. Hoyas relay for less cancer. Hoyas relay for more birthdays. Because imagine what it’s like to hear the words, “you have cancer.” Listen to these stories and CELEBRATE, REMEMBER and FIGHT BACK.

DAR Constitution Hall was full of Holiday Cheer last week as people lined up down the block, excited to experience Shecky’s Girls Night Out. On its tenth year now, Girls Night Out is Shecky’s annual event which brings together vendors of all different types for the sole purpose of giving women a fun night out to shop till they drop. Girly drinks were being served at various bars throughout the venue as well as makeover stations where women were getting manicures, makeovers, and having their hair styled. Men were definitely not easy to spot in the crowds.

L'Oreal booth

EBeauty had a booth right in the mix of things. Every person who signed up for the EBeauty newsletter was offered a free EBeauty Logo baseball hat. Towards the end of the second night we ran out of all of our hats and were forced to use the EBeauty cause alone to get people to sign up for our newsletter! Luckily people were more interested in EBeauty than they were in the hats!

Last Thursday, shoppers on the street in Georgetown made a smart decision when they walked into Brooks Brothers at around 6pm. Shopping has never been better than when you are being offered a holiday cocktail at the door. Straight ahead shoppers found a table full of pink sweaters and oxford shirts, specially put out for the night. Twenty-five percent of the nights proceeds were divided evenly between two wonderful charity’s for breast cancer research, The Pink Agenda and The Breast Cancer Research Fund. The author’s of  Preppy: Cultivating Ivy Style were also in attendance, signing copies of the book and talking to people about their beliefs of what it means to be a True Prep in Washington DC.

What made this party unique was of course the layout of the Brooks Brothers store itself. Three floors, and each offering something wonderful for partygoers. On the top floor, there was a checkout booth that looked like it had once been a bar and an outdoor patio draped with holiday lights. On the bottom floor, their was a pool table for people to indulge in games in between their shopping and mingling throughout the night. All in all, this was not a night to be missed!
