"Hurricane Ike Forgot Open House - Pampered Chef Shipped On Time #13thArrival" is an event organized by Pampered Chef, a direct sales company that sells kitchen tools and cookware. The event was created to help those affected by Hurricane Ike in 2008, and all proceeds from sales made during this event were donated to relief efforts.
The event was named "Hurricane Ike Forgot Open House" as a play on words, to bring attention to the fact that while Hurricane Ike was causing widespread destruction, many people were also preparing for the holiday season and may have forgotten about those in need. The "Open House" aspect refers to the fact that Pampered Chef consultants opened their homes to host the event and showcase the products.
The hashtag #13thArrival refers to the date of the event, which was set for October 13th, 2008. This date was chosen to symbolize the 13th day after Hurricane Ike made landfall in Texas, as a way to honor those affected by the disaster and to remind people that the recovery efforts were ongoing.
Yes, despite the challenges caused by Hurricane Ike, Pampered Chef was able to ship products on time for the event. The company worked hard to ensure that the products were delivered to consultants and customers as promised, in order to maximize the impact of the event and help those in need.
The event was a huge success, with over $1 million in sales and donations raised for Hurricane Ike relief efforts. The event also brought together Pampered Chef consultants, customers, and the community to support a common cause and make a positive impact during a difficult time.
