Over the past 14 years, QVC® and the Fashionable Footware Charitable Foundation's (FFANY®) Shoes on Sale event has raised almost $30 million to leading breast cancer research and education institutions. This is the largest fund-raising event in the shoe industry where dozens of top name brands, such as Nine West, Anne Klein New York, Via Spiga, Calvin Klein, Coach Footwear, UGG Australia, Cole Haan, Frye, Timberland, Michael by Michael Kors and Naturalizer, graciously donate products to help fund research for a cure for breast cancer.

Due to the success of the 2007 event, $460,487 was donated to U-M Comprehensive Cancer Center's Breast Oncology Research Program led by Daniel Hayes, M.D..

Crystal Cure

Crystal Cure, Inc. Breast Cancer Awareness Month Jewelry Sale

When:  Friday, October 24th, 2008; 7am - 2pm
Where:  University of Michigan Health System; Towsley Triangle

Based in Ann Arbor, Michigan, Crystal Cure, Inc. is a committed group of women. They came together to form a company that could generate funds for breast cancer research. Bound by personal connections to others who have suffered this devastating disease, we found a way to help raise money and awareness.

Their most popular product is the crystal beaded lanyard for women to use at work. The lanyard gives the impression of a beautiful necklace while serving the very practical function of displaying a badge or ID. They also have beaded bracelets and earrings. Home fashion styles are in development and will be available soon.

Crystal Cure has varied product lines to appeal to all tastes and styles. We use only natural stones, Swarovski crystal and sterling silver. Every piece is strung by hand in original designs. Each style is named in honor of a woman affected by breast cancer.

The beading is completed by a varied network of women who come together for beading parties. We create wearable works of art for women and for a cure. Learn more at the Crystal Cure web site.

Please note: The above event is sponsored by a group, business or individual not affiliated with the University of Michigan or the Comprehensive Cancer Center. The event is intended for fundraising.
