Ink Fundraiser - Ongoing
Talus Salon decided to do a new fundraiser this Fall to help to raise money for three organizations and they were kind enough to select PKD as one of them. If you click on the below link it will take you to the home page of Talus Salon. http://www.talussalon.com/ On the home page you will see Fall Fundraiser, and PKD listed below, and a link to click on for more details and to order ink. This fundraiser allows everyone to order ink cartridges at a discounted price and then money will go to the three organizations they have selected, PKD being one of them.
