Social Good Retailer Sevenly.org Announces 'Sevenly's 7 Days of Christmas' Giving Holiday Shoppers 7 Gift Options With a Purpose

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) November 22, 2011

Social good startup Sevenly announces that it will provide customers the opportunity to purchase t-shirts from past campaigns with the Sevenly Seven Days of Christmas promotion. During the week of Nov. 28 Dec. 5 Sevenly will sell one shirt from a past campaign each day.


Weve had a lot of feedback from our fans that they want to purchase shirts from a past campaign so were giving them that chance during the Sevenly Seven Days of Christmas, said CEO Dale Partridge. These shirts will be very unique (slightly different from the original) and will only be on sale for 24 hours. If you don't get it then, you'll never get it again.


The seven shirts sold during the week will be the same print used during the regular campaign except for slight changes in color schemes and shirt colors. The donation model will stay the same, with seven dollars from every sale going to that campaigns charity.


Designs that will be brought back for this limited edition run have been chosen by Sevenly staff based on the popularity of the shirt design and the number of shirts sold during the regular campaigns. Each shirt and corresponding charity will be announced on the day that it will be featured on the site at 10:00am pacific standard time.


Sevenly customers that missed their chance to buy these designs during the weekly campaigns will be able to purchase them now and our fans that already purchased these designs can look forward to buying them in a new color, added Partridge. The neat thing about these shirts is that they will only be offered for one day out of the entire year.


The promotion will follow two special offers taking place this week for Black Friday. Sevenly will give a free, custom made Sevenly wristband reading "World Change is How I Roll" to every customer that purchases a shirt on Black Friday. The company will also launch a new product line on Wednesday, Nov. 23 and begin selling hoodies for $ 35. Like its shirts, seven dollars from each hoodie sold will be donated by Sevenly to the featured charity.


For Sevenly Seven Days of Christmas well get to write seven checks for seven different charities, said Partridge. We hope all of our fans log onto the website and our Facebook page next week to see what shirt goes up each morning. I know they will show their support to raise more money for these deserving causes.


Sevenly is a co-profit company founded in June 2011 to raise capital and awareness for the worlds greatest causes. Each week Sevenly partners with one qualified nonprofit to sell a shirt specifically designed for that weeks campaign, with seven dollars from each shirt sale going to the charity. Run by CEO Dale Partridge, the companys goal is to provide support to charities through increased awareness, funding and following. To learn more about Sevenly visit http://www.Sevenly.org.

Tax Preparation is a Good Career Option for Displaced Bank & Financial Professionals

Richmond, VA (PRWEB) October 16, 2008

A new career in income tax preparation could be a safety net for some of the thousands of bank and financial services employees who are losing their jobs due to the economic crisis. Many of those being laid off are older employees who would not be able to find another comparable full-time job, but are not ready to retire.


Tax professionals need many of the same qualifications that bankers and financial professionals possess. A tax preparer must be able to conduct a thorough interview to extract financial and personal information from his or her client and hold that information in complete confidence. Preparing income tax returns requires similar skills as completing banking, mortgage or investment documents. These jobs all require attention to detail, the ability to understand and interpret complex rules and to work with numbers and software programs. Good people skills and professionalism are also prerequisites.


Today more than ever, people are relying on paid tax professionals to handle their income tax preparation and other business affairs. Even with tax preparation software in full force there is increasing demand for tax professionals. More than 75 million individual taxpayers use a paid tax professional every year, as the tax laws continue to become more complicated. Shorter deadlines, competing priorities, endless meetings, wireless Internet, and cell phones all contribute to creating a more time-starved world. As we struggle with managing the elusive resource of "time", coupled with ever-changing tax laws, delegation of tax preparation becomes a higher priority. Many people are turning to professional tax preparers for assistance. However, there has been a shortage of qualified seasonal tax professionals due to increased competition and the low unemployment rates we have enjoyed in recent years.


Tax preparation can be a very lucrative seasonal career, either as an employee of a tax or accounting firm, or as an independent tax practitioner. A veteran tax professional can earn up to $ 100 per hour or more during tax season. Tax preparation can also be combined with other professions, such as bookkeeping and financial services, to create year-round employment or self-employment if desired.


After completing just one 10-week course a career in tax preparation can be launched. Continued career growth can then be attained by gaining experience and continuing professional education in advanced individual and small business tax preparation. The Income Tax School (http://www.theincometaxschool.com) offers a Comprehensive Income Tax Course consisting of twenty 3-hour lessons (60 hours of instruction). The course ($ 499 including books) covers most individual tax returns prepared by U.S. taxpayers. The Income Tax School also offers a series of advanced individual and small business tax courses that can be taken individually or as a certificate program. Students who complete the certificate program successfully and document the experience requirement are awarded the Chartered Tax Professional-CTP
