HOSTING
A PARTY
How long does the party last?
Most parties last about 2 hours, but of course people are free to leave
whenever they wish.
What is the format?
Informal and fun! Roxanne starts the party with a short talk (about 15
mins) about the projects in Nepal and how we got involved. She
then displays the jewelry, which everyone is free to handle and
try on.
What kind of jewelry is it?
Rings, pendants, earrings, necklaces and bracelets. Hand-crafted
beadwork, carvings, silver, precious and semi-precious stones.
Prices range from $8 to $100’s for exotic pieces, but there
is absolutely no obligation or pressure on anyone to purchase
anything.

What do I need to supply?
A large table (dining room is great) that people can easily walk around
to view the jewelry.
What about food and drink?
Completely up to you. Some people serve tea and cookies. Others prefer
wine and snacks.
What else do I have to do?
Nothing. Roxanne will come by about an hour early to set up the
display.
(A great chance for the host to use her $50 credit! ;-))
How do the Nepal charities benefit?
20% of the profits from the sales go directly to organizations
supporting children rescued from the sex trade, orphans, and
abused women.
Also, the beadwork is made by lower caste women who are given
training and a fair wage.
