TREASURE YOUR CHEST! Breast Cancer Awareness T-Shirts

(rough draft - color to come) 

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month!
 
  Salty Paws is selling 2011 Breast Cancer Awareness T-Shirt
to raise money for
The American Cancer Society to
FIGHT cancer!

Last year Friends of Salty Paws raised over $1500.00 to fight breast cancer by buying "Big or Small - Save 'em All" T-Shirts. What started as a small hope to sell 35 shirts, blossomed in us selling over 150 and we could have sold more! Our 2011 Goal is to raise over $5000.00 for the American Cancer Society!  This year, we have enlisted the awesome help of Hanger 5 Shirt Company to design and screen print the shirts.  We plan to have it in stores by October 7th.

TREASURE YOUR CHEST!
We choose this theme to reflect our customer's love for travel and adventure.  The shirt is in the design stage now and as we get the artwork color proofs we will start posting them on our website and facebook page! This year will make you feel like you have just fought cancer while visiting the Pirates in the Keys!

BENEFITING WHOM?
All profits from the shirts will benefit The American Cancer Society.  And this year, 50% of the funds will go towards the fight against breast cancer and 50% will go to fight all cancers! Why do this? Because cancer has affected so many and to polarize one cancer only helps a few, we want to help many. When color is added, you will notice a few other ribbon colors along with the pink ribbon for Breast Cancer; this will symbolize all cancers we hope to fight! 

WHY ARE WE DOING THIS?  
In July, breast cancer stole my 53 year old sister, Julie! Two years ago it stole my dear friend, Cheri Edelen! And cancer has touched my mom, my dad, my aunt and countless friends. So we are fighting for them and your family too!

OPEN INVOICE / OPEN BOOK... 
We will have on display the quote and invoices of what we paid for the shirts this year. As we keep tabs of the money that has come in and gone to The American Cancer Society, you will be able to see what money has come in and what is going to The American Cancer Society. Salty Paws makes no money from the sale of this shirt.
