Top Hat Tattoo & Brighter Tomorrows


Now through December 15, bring in a $10 gift card or new, unwrapped toy valued at $10 to benefit Brighter Tomorrows and receive up to 50% off of a tattoo or piercing at Top Hat Tattoo.

Brighter Tomorrows is a non-profit organization helping the victims of domestic violence on Long Island. You can learn more about Brighter Tomorrows and their Mission here.

Top Hat Tattoo is a world class tattoo studio located in the heart of Rocky Point, NY. You can find Top Hat Tattoo on My Space here and on Facebook here.

More on the Donations: If you choose to bring in a Gift Card, Brighter Tomorrows asks that they are no larger than $10. Choose from Target, Wal*Mart, Kohl's, or a plain old Visa Gift Card. Donate as many gift cards as you like.

If a Toy Drive is more your thing, Brighter Tomorrows is asking for a new, unwrapped toy for a boy or girl, ages infant to 12 years old. Please don't spend more than $10 per toy.

Giving Back -- Cast your Vote!

This year especially, MerCurios has seen it's share of success and I am truly grateful. I've been wanting to give back for a while now, however, couldn't decide on a direction.

Moving forward, I would like to donate $1.00 from each sale to charity. This would include retail sales as well as wholesale & consignment orders.

The idea is to involve my customers -- give them (you) the choice of where the $1.00 is going. To keep things simple I will offer 3 charities. You, the customer, would choose which of the 3 charities to donate your dollar to.

I need to narrow down the list to three charities. This is not any easy task as each and every charity & cause holds significant importance to its founder and the community its helps.

So who would you donate to? St Judes? Autism speaks? Stand up 2 Cancer? Coalition for the homeless? ASPCA? Susan G. Koman? Rescue Ink? And the list goes on & on... What charities are closest to your heart?

At the end of the day, I would like to see diversity & to keep the donations in my backyard (United Sates).

Based on your suggestions, I will announce the three charities on August 1st and the donations will be retro active through January 2009. They will be sent to the respective charities at the end of the calendar year.

Cast your vote!

xoxo,
MJ
