Lollipops & Rainbows Foundation Celebrates Star-studded Launch Party at Universal Citywalk!

PRLog (Press Release) – Apr 30, 2009 – What is Lollipop & Rainbows?  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!    

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 charities closest to Emily's heart.  Each part of the foundation's logo symbolizes a cause 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
