12 days of Christmas

Nov 1, 2011

Will you be decorating your office for Christmas this year with an artificial tree, a wreath on your front door, maybe even string lights around your office doors and windows? You’ll almost certainly be sending Christmas cards or e-cards to valued clients. And your most prized clients will receive a thoughtful, unique gift to thank them for their business throughout the year. Some companies are arranging Christmas parties, where staff and customers will mingle to celebrate the season and perhaps sing Christmas carols, like the popular 12 Days of Christmas.

We have found a very special corporate gift to impress your most discerning clients while supporting a specialized training program for disadvantaged women living in the Downtown Eastside. Each stunning 12 Days of Christmas ornament is made from pine beetle-infested wood, helping our logging industry to recoup from the devastation caused by the pine beetles and reducing the chance for deadly forest fires.

Each of these beautifulornaments represents an opportunity for a better life for women who are recovering from substance abuse or other personal trauma. The women completea 10-week program in woodworking skills at Tradeworks Training Society and, upon graduation, Tradeworks helps them find a job to sustain their new lifestyle.

This holiday season we are offering creative ways of presenting your corporate gifts. You can choose to give a boxed gift set of 3 ornaments each year for four yearsin our exclusive wooden boxes engraved with your logo. Or you may choose to present a complete gift set of the 12 Days of Christmas ornaments in a beautiful wooden box engraved with your logo.

Either way you approach it – boxed gifts sets of three for four years or a boxed gift set of 12 – these ornaments represent more than a thoughtful gift to your best customers; they also represent hope for women who are striving to improve their lives through training, hard work and dedication.
