C&C Raising Funds

In my life outside of Cubes&Crayons, I spend much of my time fundraising for non-profits.  I am passionate about it and value every penny we bring in.  From that experience, I have learned several important pieces including:

1. People give money in what they believe.
2. People give money when they will get a positive return - whether in financial terms or in intangible terms.
3. If 50 people give $1000, you can raise the same amount of money as getting one person to give $50,000.  Sometimes the former is easier than the latter.  

And on that note, Cubes&Crayons is seeking large and small investors to raise $500,000 from investor(s) in this round of funding.  The investment will be used to expand into new locations, continue to build the brand’s online presence and develop new services.  Target cities for 2009 expansion include San Francisco, Austin, and New York.  Investors should note that several other cities have demonstrated strong interest and demographics for Cubes&Crayons locations and may be selected before the aforementioned cities if necessary to meet our growth goals.  Investors will receive preferred stock equal to the value of their investment in the parent corporation of Cubes&Crayons LLC.

Networking, Learning and Free Lunch at Cubes&Crayons

The food was set, our expert from SkinSpirit popped in, and the ladies set down to lunch and learn at Cubes&Crayons.  After the talk they took time to meet each other and enjoy a relaxed and FREE afternoon of mingling.  Two of our attendees and well-known Bay Area bloggers share their experience.  Not Just  Working Mom enjoyed the comfy chairs and BonggaMom thought she might learn just a little about laugh lines.

Bring your lunch and questions for our panel experts on organic baby products, being "green" in the home, and raising a "green" child.

Upcoming Free Event: Anti-Aging workshop/luncheon with Skin Spirit

 Do you know that the average woman has over $400.00 worth of UN-USED products in her bathroom!? Of course you do because you’re one of those women who was sucked into buying something because someone PROMISED it would make you more beautiful. Twice. And it didn’t. Twice. Seriously, who’s a girl to  believe after she’s been product-suckered so many times? Is it possible to find an honest place that will give you honest answers to questions? A place that is driven by integrity and not revenue? A place where you won’t feel guilty about returning a product because it made you break out? A place where gorgeous, charming men are single and straight and where ice cream is calorie free? Does such a place exist?

Why Cubes&Crayons Childcare is the Best!

This past week, I had the distinct pleasure of working with Ashley, superstar child development guru, in the Cubes&Crayons drop-in childcare facility in Mountain View.  Highlights of my day included:

• Fun singing ("head, shoulders, knees and toes" was definitely the universal favorite)
•  Doing art projects (thanks to N. for making paper chains with me)
• Reading surrounded my babies to three year olds
• And lots of giggles.
