A.J. O'Connor Associates Gets Creative at 30-Year Celebration Dinner Giving Back to Those Less Fortunate


Parsippany, NJ (PRWEB) May 08, 2013

To celebrate thirty years in business, clients, colleagues and family members of HR Consulting firm, A.J. OConnor Associates (AJO) attended a client appreciation dinner last month. To mark the celebration and recognize AJOs commitment to giving back to its communities in this milestone year, AJO partnered with Caring Capital once again. Dinner guests had fun participating in two activities under the professional guidance of teaching artists from Caring Capital.


Large fleece drawstring pouches were decorated and filled with personal products contributed by a major consumer products client of AJO. These were donated to the Peoples Pantry, which continues to support the needs of 1,500 families in the Toms River area who remain in shelters or the homes of friends and family and still struggle from the impact of Hurricane Sandy.


In addition, guests embellished leaves for a large tree collage. The Tree of Life will adorn the walls at Family Service of Morris County (FSMC), where AJOs President, Andrew OConnor, serves as a member of the Board of Managers. Coincidentally, FSMC is also celebrating a milestone year in 2013.


It was important for us to find a way to celebrate our thirtieth year, while giving back to those less fortunate, observed AJO President, Andy OConnor. We heard that Peoples Pantry needed personal care products and we were very grateful to one of our clients for their immediate response to our request for help. We couldnt have done this without their support.


We were delighted to be part of this celebration, building on our relationship with Andy and his team and demonstrating how easy it is to help neighbors facing tough times, added Susie Schub, President of Caring Capital.


Pat Donahue, Executive Director of the Peoples Pantry commented, We are so grateful to A.J. OConnor Associates for making this happen. Caring Capitals Dream Pouches are not only lovely, they are filled with many items that our families desperately need, like skin cream and first aid kits. Their generous donation even included some do-it-yourself pouch kits to decorate. These will be ideal for the 8 to 12-year-olds who will be participating in our upcoming Art Therapy Program."


Patrice Picard, CEO at Family Service of Morris County, noted, The tree collage is such a beautiful gift, and brings real warmth to our building and smiles to the faces of those who stop by to study it, many of whom are facing challenges. It's also a wonderful symbol of community partnership and we are grateful to AJO for this donation.

Vancouver Doctor offers a revolutionary new beauty treatment giving the feeling of 30 Microdermabrasions in A Single Treatment


Vancouver, BC (PRWEB) May 29, 2013

Creating a Signature Treatment

Glowing skin is a hallmark of health and beauty. Babies have it, but as we age, the environment takes a toll on our complexions. The Vegas Peel is an exclusive, signature treatment developed for the patients of Beautiful Canadian Laser and SkinCare Clinic, by the Medical Director, Dr. Sachit Shah.


I saw a need for a no-downtime treatment that would restore glow to stressed skins in a single session. It was essential that it remove the skin-dulling damage on the surface of the skin, as well as provide anti-aging benefits by increasing collagen production.


How to Get Glowing (as in Skin)

As a clinical researcher for various medical bodies, Dr. Shah was up to the task, and introduced a new technology to patients. A Laser Skin Resurfacing treatment, the Vegas Peel goes deeper than microdermabrasion for profound skin-softening and an immediate return of radiance and glow. Stressed skin is refined and collagen is stimulated for anti-aging benefits that include a smoothing of fine lines and the prevention of new ones. Immediate results in a single session makes this a favourite among patients. Within 3-5 days the skin will peel, revealing a plump, younger, fresher complexion.


The Vegas Peel is suitable and safe for all skin types, and apart from mild redness, there is no downtime. Men and Women can return to work immediately, with or without makeup! Unlike facials and chemical peels, you don't need multiple treatments to see results. And while it can be done monthly, 4-6 Vegas Peels a year will keep skin radiant and ready for those special moments that matter. At Beautiful Canadian Laser and SkinCare Clinic, those moments should be everyday!
