on health Pinning On Hope (NAPSA)—Raising awareness of treatments and ultimately finding a cure for breast canceris vital to the estimated three mil- lion American womenliving with the condition. To help, The Libby Ross Found| ation, a nonprofit 627 S97 | organization dedi- Ae;\cated to fighting breast cancer, has teamed with Swarovski crystal to create the Pink Hope Pin. The pin serves as a reminder to help support funding for breast cancer awareness and research— not just in October during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, but year-round. “I know firsthand the devasta- tion breast cancer can bring to patients and their families,” said Lori Ross, Libby Ross Foundation Chairman & Founder. “Swarovski’s donation will help fund programs that will empower womento rise above the disease and enrich their lives.” The company has donated $40,000 from pin sales over the years to support two of the Foun- dation’s programs: Yoga Workshops for Survivors of Breast Cancer And Other Women’s Cancers and The Libby Ross Foundation Pink Ribbon Kit gift bag program, which promote healing and a sense of well-being for both breast cancer survivors and women undergoing treatment. The pin is available at Swarovski Gallery stores and www.swarovski.com. For more information, call 1-800-426-3088.
