"Using BlackGiftBag.com gave our fundraising event for the local Red Cross chapter just the “bling” that we were looking for on our upscale event.  Our VIP guests received black VIP bags with super items, and the general admission guest received smaller bags with great products.  They even had door prize drawings!  The staff helped stuff and distribute the bags and lent an elegant feel to the whole event!  We will definitely be calling Black Gift Bags for our next event!"     -Susan Holmes, Executive Director,
Red Cross Wiregrass area chapter


"Our local chapter of the American Red Cross used the services of Black Gift Bag, and we were very impressed! It added so much to our  fundraiser, and the level of professionalism was outstanding. The people attending the event were thrilled with the bags and their contents, and it made everyone feel special. Janeen and Karen showed up early, and took the worry out of dealing with both the VIP and general admission guests. The bags were well received, and we hope that this is the start of a long-term relationship with the Wiregrass Chapter of the American Red Cross and Black Gift Bag".  -Kerry Farrell, The Main Event, Dothan AL
