Elégance launches campaign to support Breast Health International
Elégance, the international ladies designer fashion label is delighted to announce that from Autumn/Winter 2010, it will be supporting worldwide charity, Breast Health International and its ‘Fund for Living’ appeal which offers practical help and support to those suffering with breast cancer.
Elégance has designed, and will exclusively sell across Europe, a T-shirt in three desirable colours alongside a complementing, luxurious silk scarf. The T-shirts will retail at £39 each and the scarf at £29, £10 from the sale of each item will be donated to the charity’s Fund for Living appeal – a program that supports those diagnosed with breast cancer. The initiative helps fund practical needs not covered on the National Health Service that assist those fighting breast cancer to maintain a sense of normality without financial constraints.
The T-shirts and scarf will be available from September and can be ordered online at www.elegance.co.uk or by calling 0844 557 5507. Through the sale of these items, Elégance is hoping to raise in excess of £10,000 for the appeal, an amount which will enable four new Fund for Living programs to be established across Europe.
UK Managing Director, Katrin Ehmer commented, ‘We’re very excited to be working with Breast Health International, their Fund for Living appeal is an extremely worthwhile and is some cases a life changing cause. It’s an incredible honour to think, through the sale of the T-shirt and scarf, that we can help make a positive difference to those suffering with breast cancer.”
