If you own a business, or if you know someone who does please help us get the word out about our Butterfly Campaign. This is a simple way for local businesses to help us help people who suffer from lupus. Each business can take as many Butterflies as they like, and then display them at their place of business with our display brochure. Customers can purchase them for $1.00, and then write their name on the butterfly. The business owner will hang them on their window, or wall. It's that easy!!  

We are looking for any type of store or business that would be willing to sell our butterflies. Delis, Pharmacies, Supermarkets, Car dealerships, Repair shops, Movie theaters, Hair salons, Bagel shops, and real estate offices, are just a few ideas of what kind of store or businesses can help us. Whatever kind of business you own, or shop at, we are interested in talking to. This is a great way for local stores and shops to help their customers, friends and neighbors who have lupus.  
 

For close to fifty years we have helped support people with lupus in the Long Island/Queens area. Although we have over 2,000 members, and a fully staffed office, we have managed to keep our operating costs under 7%. We are hoping that the butterfly campaign will become one of our annual fundraising efforts. The money raised will go towards our support and research programs. The time to fight lupus is now, as diagnosed cases are on the rise. If you have any questions, or if you would like a butterfly info packet sent to you, please contact us.

All donations are tax-deductible to the extent allowed by law. Lupus of Long Island/Queens is a 501(C)(3) not-for-profit organization incorporated under the State of New York. A copy of our latest Annual Report may be obtained, upon request, from the Lupus Alliance or from the Office of the Attorney General, Charities Bureau, 120 Broadway, New York, New York 10271.
