SAKS Hosts March 3 SFTT Event: B.E.S.T. Beauty & Health 2010 Showcasing SFTT's work to get America's frontline troops the Best available personal combat gear to make it home alive and in one piece (Greenwich, CT – February 5, 2010) No matter if you're on-the-go in Fairfield County or a frontline soldier fighting halfway around the globe to protect our freedoms, you can't be your B.E.S.T. without the appropriate information and tools to support your lifestyle. SFTT's B.E.S.T. evening of 'Beauty & Health 2010' on March 3 from 6:15 to 8:15 PM at Saks Fifth Avenue at 205 Greenwich Avenue in Greenwich, is designed to do both. On March 3, Saks Fifth Avenue and B.E.S.T. (Best Equipment to Support our Troops) invite you to join them in Greenwich for cocktails, hors d'oeuvres and a special Jo Malone presentation featuring the Art of Fragrance Combining and Scent Surround where you'll learn to create a signature scent for yourself and your home. All ticket and raffle proceeds from the B.E.S.T. evening will go directly to Greenwich, CT based Soldiers for the Truth Foundation (SFTT) to pursue its unique educational and advocacy mission: to see that the Pentagon and our elected leaders in Washington get the right personal equipment for our country's warriors, by giving a public voice to and providing a candid forum for America's front-line troops. Unlike the many wonderful organizations working to help returning soldiers, marines and other veterans, only SFTT is single-mindedly focused on preventive action—getting the Best available Equipment to Support the Troops before they deploy, the better to bring these courageous men and women home alive and in one piece.
