Do I need any special permission or is it OK to go ahead to do this? Since I'm a Stella & Dot representative, I would like to hold a "virtual trunk show" and donate my profits to the Preeclampsia Foundation in honor of Preeclampsia Awareness Month. Any input would be great as I was hoping to kick this off within the next few days to make the most of Awareness Month.

We greatly appreciate your fundraising efforts. Thanks so much!! As long as your buyers realize they won't be getting a tax deductible receipt (unless they're writing a check TO the Preeclampsia Foundation), there's really nothing else that raises any concerns here.

Thank you. I guess the main thing is that I would be telling people that I'm raising this money to donate to the Preeclampsia Foundation, so I won't need any active support but the OK to use the name :D
