The FINANCIAL -- PALO ALTO, Calif., Oct. 11, 2011 -- Snapfish by HP, the No. 1 online
personal publishing service, today announced a corporate relationship
with Susan G. Komen for the Cure® in support of Breast Cancer Awareness
Month.
Throughout October, Snapfish is offering exclusive PinkGives photo products in its online store – including cards, jewelry, calendars, bookmarks and notebooks – to raise awareness for the cause and enable members to show their support through the creation of personalized gifts for family and friends.
For each purchase made, Snapfish will donate 30 percent of all proceeds up to $25,000 to Susan G. Komen, the boldest community fueling the best science and making the biggest impact in the fight against breast cancer.
“Snapfish, like many families, has been personally affected by breast cancer, so this is an issue that is near and dear to our hearts,” said Helen Vaid, general manager, Snapfish by HP. “As such, we desire to support this effort by partnering with Susan G. Komen, also dedicated to support, awareness, the importance of early detection and finding cures.”
“Support from partners like Snapfish helps us achieve so much in this fight,” said Margo K. Lucero, vice president, Business Development and Partnerships, Susan G. Komen for the Cure. “The five-year survival rate when detected early is over 98 percent! Enabling our supporters as well as members on Snapfish to enjoy unique, personalized photo gifts while also giving them a chance to contribute to the cause is a way that, together, we can continue to take action in the fight against breast cancer.”
Snapfish has a long-standing tie to breast cancer awareness and the support of the cause as two young women in the Snapfish family were previously diagnosed with breast cancer in 2004 and 2006. Today, both women are doing well today and have become advocates for awareness, early detection and prevention of the disease. They help to inform and drive the Snapfish breast cancer awareness programming each year.
