Project Linus

Project Linus was created in 1995 and their mission is, "to provide love, a sense of security, warmth and comfort to children who are seriously ill, traumatized, or otherwise in need through the gifts of new, handmade blankets and afghans, lovingly created by volunteer Blanketeers. " Since their inception they have been able to distribute over three million blankets to children in need. Project Linus is the organizations that the sunglass distributors, HBSC, choose to volunteer their service for this year. HBSunglassCompany.com made over 25 blankets hoping that they go to kids who will really appreciate them.

2009- Year of Saving

People have already predicted that due to the way the economy is heading, 2009 will be the year that people start to save their money. Much of this is due to the loss of 1.9 million jobs recently and the threat of many more layoffs still to come. And a reflection of all of this is that the consumer will start spending less and less money, thus saving more.
One way to start saving money is to cut out unnecessary expenses. For example instead of insisting of purchasing $400 name brand sunglasses, one can purchase sunglasses at a fraction of the cost. The only thing missing is the name brand logo. HBSunglassCompany sells great quality sunglasses at wholesale pricing. Their sunglasses look like name brand glasses and will cost you only a few dollars per pair. Things like this will definitely help the consumer spend less and save money in 2009.
