Stars Galore at Gifting Services ESPY Gift Suite

(I-Newswire) July 22, 2010 - Gifting Services’ ESPY Gift Suite is the place for athletes to be this summer. In the past week, Olympic figure skaters Sasha Cohen and Evan Lysacek, Super Bowl and Olympic champion Willie Gault, Olympic volleyball players Phil Dalhausser, Todd Rogers, and Dain Blanton; Olympic skiers Hannah Kearney, Lindsey Vonn, Julia Mancuso, Aksel Lund Svindal, and Bode Miller; basketball players Raja Bell, Jrue Holiday, and Chris Bosh; and five-time track world champion Maurice Greene all dropped by the gift suite.

The gift suite was catered toward athletes, so sporting gear, vitamins and supplements, and energy drinks were of course included. Of course all work and no play is no fun, so these athletes were also gifted jewelry, upscale attire and footwear, spa treatments, and beauty and tanning products.

“I’m excited to try out the new products,” said Sasha Cohen. “This is the most fun I’ve ever had at a gift suite. I enjoyed the calm atmosphere and friendly personal attention.”

This year’s ESPY Gift Suite benefits the Athletes for Life Foundation, a non-profit founded by Olympic and Super Bowl champion Willie Gault that relies on a partnership with world-class athletes and medical professionals to promote healthy lifestyles by providing health education and making medical access more widely available.

“The fact that the suite benefits AFL is like the icing on the cake,” said Lysacek. “As an athlete, I know the importance of a healthy lifestyle, but I also know how difficult it is for many people to get access to the top medical professionals and technology. AFL works to make that access easier, and I love that I can be a part of that work through this suite.”

Athletes were not the only ones that made appearances at the private gift suite. Former Sports Illustrated model Sabrina Barnett, “Hot-Tub Time Machine” actor Craig Robinson, “Sell This House” host Tanya Memme, and actress Bai Ling also dropped by.

“I really liked it,” said Bai Ling. “It’s private and efficient. It’s not like everybody is here. The experience of trying on stuff was fun. Plus I got a glass of wine.”
Celebs were impressed by atmosphere and quality of the products at the gift suite.

“I’ve been to many suites and this is the best,” said Willie Gault. “It’s different from most gifting suites. It feels like home and more comfortable, and the products are different and useable.”
