La Bella Baskets Works to Support Struggling Single Mothers By Lending a Hand

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) August 25, 2010 -- Baskets of Hope Program Delivers Free Gift Spa Basket to Single Mothers in Need

Eighty percent of single mothers have to work to support their families, and thirty percent of them are living below the poverty line. Single parenting is stressful and exhausting, and, despite the constant presence of children, often lonely.

La Bella Baskets, an online retailer of gift baskets, is working to support struggling single mothers through their new program, Baskets of Hope.

A portion of all La Bella sales goes into the program. La Bella consultants are asked to nominate single mothers in need. Then La Bella creates gift baskets for these mothers, and has them delivered to their doors.

Founding owner Janis Rodriguez, says, “We want single moms to know that we do care about them and we want them to feel beautiful, important and cared for. To show our appreciation, every month we deliver to single moms a La Bella Basket of Hope filled with beautiful spa and bath essentials. La Bella Baskets shares a deeply held belief that all single moms needs a calm and nurturing place in their lives to relax, melt away stress, rejuvenate, heal and promote a truly ‘blissful balance’ in body, mind and spirit.”

These are usually women who have never heard of La Bella, and are certainly not expecting a gift basket from them. In addition to the gifts, the baskets offer mothers a “Basket of Hope” poem.

After receiving her surprise gift basket, Syliva, a single mother from Texas said, “Wow, wow, wow – when I received this, at first I said, this must be a mistake. Then when I read the message, I was so touched. I had that feeling of, why me? Thank you La Bella!”

Rodriguez says, “Our mission at La Bella Baskets is all about empowering and uplifting women and our program is all about delivering smiles.”

La Bella Baskets was created with a dual mission: to support and empower women who want to work from home and to offer people a meaningful and affordable gift giving opportunity. La Bella Baskets believes the spirit of giving is very uplifting and powerful and they are proud, excited, and grateful for their program and its purpose.
