Free Gloves with min. $35 gift card purchase!
You may notice something strange afoot at Sunnyside these days (week?) and no, it’s not just JR’s new hairdo. Everyone is sporting the stylish Pink, Susan G. Komen for the Cure, Nitrle Touch gardening glove. The staff at Sunnyside is excited to raise awareness for breast cancer research (not to mention protect our hands from the daily blisters of gardening!). We are encouraging our customers to join our pink glove brigade and we have two fun ways to participate!
With any gift card purchased (minimum of $35), you will receive a pair of pink gloves for free! You can also contribute by simply buying the gloves. For each pair of gloves sold 70 cents will go directly to Susan G. Komen for the Cure, the global leader in breast cancer research. A perennial top rated 4-star charity, Susan G. Komen for the Cure is praised by Charity Navigator as “consistently executing its mission in a fiscally responsible way and outperforming most other charities in America.” This stellar organization has invested nearly 1.5 billion dollars since its inception and shows no sign of letting up until a cure is finally found.
Hope abounds in the fight against breast cancer – the five year survival rate for breast cancer is now above 98%, compared with just 74% in 1982. However, without a clearly know cause or cure, the fight is now more relevant and monumental than ever. A startling one in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer within their lifetimes.
Please join us in raising awareness and money in the fight against breast cancer. In a story I am sure a sad majority of people can relate to, I recently watched a friend battle with breast cancer. Thankfully in remission, after a terrifying year of financial woe and emotional uncertainty, her breast cancer and the hope for a cure is firmly planted in my mind. For her and the millions of others out there let’s fight this battle with them. And we can do it, one pair of pink gloves at a time.
The Gift Card and Glove Promotion runs May 1st through Mother’s Day (May 9th!).
