Local Cleaner Assists Susan G. Komen Foundation
Cincinnati, OH - October 2, 2006 – Throughout the month of October, National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, hometown cleaners Appearance Plus will collect donations at its three storefront locations – Hyde Park, Downtown, and Anderson – and in return, provide donors a special $5 discount on their next dry cleaning order. In addition, everyone participating will be entered to win a special breast cancer awareness gift basket.
According to Appearance Plus marketing director Angie Miller, the locally owned and operated cleaner looks to raise awareness among its customers and employees on the importance of regular breast screenings, and to support employees Pam Pille, recently diagnosed with breast cancer; and Dianne Eggers, a breast cancer survivor.
“We’re going to do what we can, even in our own small way, to show our support for our employees, but also give everyone an opportunity to help out just by doing something you do anyway – have your clothes cleaned,” Miller said. “I think that’s why we have such a loyal customer base, because we are more than a dry cleaner, we are members of this community who do what we can, when we can, to give back.”
Miller said Appearance Plus Cleaners will also make a donation to the Susan G. Komen Foundation above and beyond what is collected from donors.
