Mixed Bag Designs Fundraisers Support Girl Power 2 Cure

Aug. 17, 2012 - PRLog -- August 17, 2012 – San Francisco. Mixed Bag Designs is proud to announce its new fundraiser partnership with Girl Power 2 Cure. The non-profit organization Girl Power 2 Cure taps into the girl movement saying "let's get this done," and help the thousands of women and girls diagnosed with Rett Syndrome. Mixed Bag Designs is now offering shoppers the option to support Girl Power 2 Cure and is also hoping to form an alliance with many Girl Power 2 Cure supporters in their fundraising efforts.

In addition to a Girl Power 2 Cure fundraiser, Mixed Bag Designs is now extending its vibrant catalog of reusable bags and eco-friendly accessories for Girl Power 2 Cure’s training teams who are raising funds and support for their upcoming Disney Princess Half Marathon this December.

Through local fundraising programs, Girl Power 2 Cure has raised enough money to contribute to research that discovered a way to stunt the effects and a possible cure for Rett Syndrome. Mixed Bag Designs chose to back Girl Power 2 Cure as part of its campaign to reach out to organizations and help their causes by offering an stylish, green fundraiser. Girl Power’s colorful can-do attitude and commitment to eradicating Rett Syndrome caught the eye of the Mixed Bag Designs team.  

“It is a cause that hits close to home, as some of our employees’ families have experienced first-hand the life-changing effects of Rett Syndrome. What attracted us to Girl Power 2 Cure was the contagious determination and commitment Ingrid and her team have. The empowering message and girl power attitude fit well with Mixed Bag Designs and our fundraisers,” explains Mixed Bag Designs marketing director Amy Lombard.

Girl Power 2 Cure supporters can shop online at Mixed Bag Designs' online store, enter the fundraiser ID# 123389 and 40% of each order will go to Girl Power 2 Cure. Customers who add the “GirlPower” code will also receive 10% off their order (valid until December 31, 2012).

About Girl Power 2 Cure:
Upon hearing that her daughter was diagnosed with the neurological disorder Rett Syndrome, Ingrid Harding determined to do as much as she could to not only help her daughter but the thousands of other girls who have Rett Syndrome. "Just because my daughter is disabled doesn't mean I'm going to take the color out of her world. I wanted to put forth the life and joy that's inside of her." And with that sentiment, Ingrid started Girl Power 2 Cure, a fun and colorful campaign that has grown into a national movement for finding a cure for Rett Syndrome. More at http://girlpower2cure.org
