PRLog (Press Release) - Sep 10, 2009 -
Blissliving Home, the new interior lifestyle brand for the stylish consumer seeking modern design with global influence, announces a Give & Receive shopping event in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month to benefit Susan G. Komen for the Cure http://www.komen.org/, a global leader in the breast cancer movement.

Breast Cancer Awareness Month (October) http://www.nbcam.org/ first took place in 1985 when it was organized by pharmaceutical company AstraZeneca. With this health initiative AstraZenca aimed to promote mammography as the most effective weapon in the fight against breast cancer. Today, Breast Cancer Awareness Month is a joint platform for breast cancer charities, such as Susan G. Komen for the Cure, and pharmaceutical companies to raise awareness of the disease and to remind women to be “breast aware” for earlier detection.

“It seems everyone knows someone whose life has been affected by breast cancer”, says Mei Xu, creator and CEO of Blissliving Home http://www.blisslivinghome.com/. “In the United States, breast cancer is still the most common cancer and the second-most common cause of cancer death amongst women. Susan G. Komen for the Cure is an outstanding organization spearheading the fight against this disease, and I hope Blissliving Home can help make a difference by supporting their work.”

With the Breast Cancer Awareness Month Give & Receive shopping event, Blissliving Home will promote two complete collections - Autumn Chic and Harajuku. Both collections feature soft pink tones, the color of the ribbon symbolizing the fight against breast cancer.

Twenty percent of orders placed on all Autumn Chic and Harajuku products in this promotion will be donated to Susan G. Komen for the Cure. As an additional bonus, Blissliving Home will offer customers free shipping.

The Give & Receive shopping event will take place via the Blissliving Home online boutique http://www.blisslivinghome.com starting on Tuesday, September 15 through Saturday, October 31, 2009.

Customers should enter the code SUSANGKOMEN at checkout to participate and to receive free shipping on their orders.
