Philadelphia Residents Encouraged to Wear Jeans for a Good Cause

 

The Wellness Community of Philadelphia, an affiliate of the Cancer Support Community, is urging its participants and friends to join the nation in putting on their favorite blue jeans on October 8 as part of Lee National Denim Day. Funds raised will benefit cancer education and support programs and breast cancer research nationwide. The 2010 Lee National Denim Day Ambassador is actor Felicity Huffman.

Denim Day, now in its 15th year, has united millions nationwide in the fight against breast cancer. A portion of funds raised will come back to The Wellness Community of Philadelphia, which provides emotional support and educational programs for those faced with cancer and their loved ones at no cost to them. Funds also support some of the nation’s most promising early detection and treatment research, and the Women’s Cancer Programs of the Entertainment Industry Foundation (EIF).

“We all know someone affected by cancer, and Denim Day is an easy way for anyone in Philadelphia to get involved in this important cause,” says TWCP executive director Kim Hinkelman. “Participation is so simple -- all you have to do is wear jeans and give $5.00.  Participants can sign up at www.denimday.com. Your money combined with thousands of others’ contributions will help us raise millions in one single day.”

Since the program’s creation in 1996, nearly $80 million has been raised for breast cancer research and programs, making Denim Day one of the largest and most successful one-day fundraising events in the nation. Groups can register at www.denimday.com or call 800-521-5533 to receive a free participation kit in the mail.
