Since Designing-Diva became a reality, I have supported the Susan G Komen foundation's and breast cancer with sales from my swarovski beaded awareness bracelets. Last year, a limited edition necklace design was created to support ovarian cancer research as well.
Both of these causes are important to me not just because I am a woman but because I personally know many courageous women who are struggling with these diseases and some who have lost. I want to honor these women by helping raise funds for research.
Cynthia Brown of Gift-A-Licious has given me another opportunity to do so and I'm very excited about this venture. I will be donating jewelry for 5 gift bags for a concert that will benefit breast cancer awareness and the St. Anne Home for Mentally Challenged Women. The fundraising concert will be held on October 25th at Eastern Kentucky University and the main attraction is Dolly Parton.
Here is how my jewelry donation to the gift bag will help ...
You can check out current E-bay auctions like this that are making a difference right now... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=170239952473&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=007 and http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=170239952982&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=007 )
Not to give too much away but my 2008 limited edition jewelry designs that are in the works will be "spiritually" based for both breast and ovarian cancer. Both designs will be available for purchase next month. Make sure you are signed up for the Diva's newsletter so you don't miss out.
I encourage you to support whatever you are passion about it....no matter if it is time or pennies....it does all make a difference!
Have a fabulous weekend!

- A gift bag presented to Dolly as a thank you for performing
- another will be auctioned off to benefit breast cancer awareness and the St. Anne Home for Mentally Challenged Women
- one will be presented to Dolly to auction off for her Imagination Library charity
- two will be used as magazine giveaways, etc (great PR for these causes to raise awareness)
