Lollipops & Rainbows Foundation Celebrates Official Launch @ Universal CityWalk

April 21, 2009 - PRLog -- The foundation is dedicated as a tribute to Emily's grandfather Dave Reaves who came up with the idea 10 years ago.  The event offers free admission to the public & promises to be the biggest, star-studded fun-filled party of its kind in 2009!  Not to mention it will help raise awareness towards 4 special charities closest to Emily's heart.  

What is Lollipop & Rainbows?  Emily believes in the power of YOUTH which is what the LOLLIPOPS symbolize.  She believes no matter how young you are, you can make a difference.  The RAINBOW represents the "beauty of all colors"; symbolizing that regardless of color or race, your true beauty lies within.

The foundation supports (4) specific causes/organizations to encourage everyone to get involved and support their charity of choice:

THE "PEACE" LOLLIPOP - The Peace Fund (Protect Educate Aid Children Everywhere)
THE "FAITH" LOLLIPOP - Saint Jude's Children's Hospital
THE "LOVE" LOLLIPOP - Society of the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA)
THE RAINBOW - Children Uniting Nations

(PLEASE VISIT THE FOUNDATION'S OFFICIAL SITE AT www.lollipopsandrainbows.com)
