Press Release Body: Exton, PA 11/09/07 - Margie Gunn, owner of Chesapeake Ribbons
(www.ChesapeakeRibbons.com), has partnered with Wigs 4 Kids, The Johns Hopkins
Children's Center, and the Devereux C.A.R.E.S. School to help children in need.

Chesapeake Ribbons offers custom crafted barrettes, bows, headbands, ribbon belts
and watches, burp clothes and key fobs to customers and causes. With her strong
desire to give back and make a difference in the lives of children, owner Margie
Gunn regularly donates her custom products to Wigs 4 Kids, The Johns Hopkins
Children's Center and the Devereux C.A.R.E.S. School. Ms. Gunn adds, "I have
always had an interest in giving back to the community and with a commitment to
helping others these organizations seemed like a great fit for Chesapeake Ribbons."

Wigs 4 Kids will be giving the Chesapeake Ribbons product donation of custom-made
hair accessories to new children when they get their wigs, and as part of their gift
bags at the annual 'Wigs 4 Kids' Gala. "Wigs 4 Kids main focus is on cancer patients
and includes other young people with similar appearance related challenges that
cause hair loss such as:, alopecia, trichotillomania, lupus, hydrocephalus, burns
and other disorders,"( Wigs 4 Kids). A native of Maryland, it only seemed natural
to Margie to also select an organization close to home. Therefore she has also
teamed up with The Johns Hopkins Children's Center where they will be using
Chesapeake Ribbons stretchy headbands as Bingo prizes to children staying in their
center. The kids play Bingo via television every Wednesday. The Johns Hopkins
Children's Center "offers one of the most comprehensive pediatric medical programs
in the country, from performing emergency trauma surgery, to finding causes of and
treatments for childhood cancers, to delivering a child's good bill of health," (The
Johns Hopkins Children's Center). Devereux CARES (Childhood Autism Research and
Education Services) is an approved private school, for children who have been
diagnosed with Autism, Asperger's Syndrome, or Pervasive Developmental Disorder-Not
Otherwise Specified, located in Downingtown, PA. Ms. Gunn adds, "As a former Primary
Instructional Coordinator at Devereux CARES, I feel that it is only appropriate to
donate Chesapeake Ribbons' Autism products to CARES throughout the year. By donating
my products to the school, they are able to sell these unique gifts at their Annual
PTO Fundraiser, booth at the Philadelphia Walk Now Event, and other various
fundraisers throughout the year."

Chesapeake Ribbons is a home-based craft company in Exton, Pennsylvania. Ms. Gunn
has been actively involved in various social networking groups where she would often
hear other mothers need for practical, yet stylish hair accessories for their
children. Margie decided to utilize her creativity and sense of style to design hair
and other accessories that are practical and stylish, but won't break the bank.
Margie is proud to have the opportunity to support Wigs 4 Kids, The Johns Hopkins
Children's Center and the Devereux C.A.R.E.S. School.
