Happy VALUE Day! New Orleans Saints



Hi-5!

The NEW ORLEANS SAINTS football team is raffling off one of their Superbowl Champions Rings to support the Gulf Coast!  This victory package also includes a vacation and payment of taxes associated with winning these luxury prizes.  The proceeds of the Saints raffle benefit Gulf Coast relief efforts. The Saints Championship Ring was designed by a committee of  the players, coaches and owners of the Saints NFL winning franchise team.  This diamond bedazzled fleur-de-lis embedded bling bling of a ring is exclusively designed and produced by the world-renowned Tiffany & Co.!   I guess this means the winner should expect the ring to be presented in  a priceless Tiffany blue box, too!

This is one of the several efforts to help the Gulf Coast residents affected by the BP Oil and rig explosion over 5 months ago. Saints quarterback Drew Brees has also been promoting the Pepsi Challenge for the Gulf Coast, too.

We appreciate that the 2010 NFL Superbowl World Champions are giving back to their community.  This Saints project will also benefit individuals with disabilities who live in the New Orleans metropolitan area along the Gulf Coast.

Gulf Coast area residents, schools, business owners and disability rights/advocacy and resource organizations are still recovering from the 2005 Hurricane Katrina.  Leaving in the aftermath of this disaster has been challenging.  With this oil rig explosion, now many seafood industry partners are in distress.  This includes individuals with disabilities who depend on this vital revenue earning tourism market.

 So, let's support our Happy VALUE Day! New Orleans Saints Gulf Coast Superbowl Ring Raffle!  A version of this ring can be viewed and purchased at Tiffany & Co., the NFL Superbowl Championship Ring world-renowned designer and producer.  Yes, Tiffany & Co. designed and produced the NFL Superbowl Champions sterling silver Vince Lombardi trophy, too!
