Electrolux and Kelly Ripa Kick Off "Text-a-Thon for a Cause"

Earlier this summer, many bloggers and those who love to read blogs participated in a great campaign with Electrolux and Kelly Ripa to benefit ovarian cancer research. Your efforts in spreading the word helped make the Virtual Lemonade Stand a huge success. Thanks to everyone who contributed by building their own Virtual Lemonade Stand!

September 9th kicked-off a great cause that each and everyone of you can help and participating is easy! With September marking the start of Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month, Electrolux and Kelly Ripa will once again lend their support to the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund (OCRF) to help find a cure. Ovarian Cancer affects thousands of women each year, and we need your help to raise awareness about this disease. Starting September 9th, Moms can participate in a unique “Text-a-Thon for a Cause” campaign to fund research and promote early detection of Ovarian cancer. You can also enter for a chance to Win a luxury frontload washer and dryer from Electrolux in Turquoise Sky, the color of ovarian cancer awareness.

Electrolux and Kelly Ripa are proud to support OCRF in their mission to fund research to find a a method of early detection and ultimately a cure for ovarian cancer. Electrolux has committed to donate $500,000 to this worthy cause. As part of that commitment, Electrolux is donating $2001 to OCRF for every Turquoise Sky laundry pair purchased.


Luckily, Electrolux and Kelly Ripa remain committed to raising money and awareness to support this worthy cause. Together, they are launching another exciting campaign that utilizes a form of communication that many of us use every day - texting! During September, Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month, Electrolux and Kelly are holding a "Text-a-Thon for a Cause" to help raise support for the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund whose mission is to fund research to find a method of early detection and ultimately a cure for ovarian cancer.

Also during September, visitors to Kelly Confidential can help spread awareness for this important cause by sending a virtual T-shirt to a friend. For every virtual t-shirt sent, Electrolux will donate $1 to the OCRF. Fashion-forward Moms can also purchase a limited edition T-shirt designed by Ripa; 100% of the proceeds from the sale of the T-shirts will go to OCRF.
