East Rutherford, NJ, June 11, 2007:
CCA Industries (CCA) is proud to announce that the sales of Nutra Nail® generated $100,000 to help fight breast cancer, in its Second Annual Breast Cancer Awareness Promotion, launched in October 2006. The promotion was based on donating $0.25 for each sale of specially marked Nutra Nail® nail treatment products. CCA Industries donated the funds to the Young Survival Coalition (YSC), a breast cancer support and advocacy group based in New York City.
The check was presented to Michele Przypyszny, CEO of Young Survival Coalition, at a special luncheon in New York on Tuesday April 10th. Special thanks was extended to all participating accounts that made this promotion so successful in particular Albertsons, Big Y, Brooks, CVS, Discount Drug, Drug Fair, Duane Reade, Family Dollar, Fred Meyer, Happy Harry, Kerr Drug, Kroger, Marc Glassman, Meijer, Price Chopper, Priceless, Rite Aid, Walgreens and Wal-Mart.
CCA is conducting the Nutra Nail® YSC Breast Cancer Awareness event again this year in September & October and is looking forward to even participation and a goal that surpasses last year's $100,000 in support of this heartfelt cause.
Nutra Nail packages will once again feature the photos of several YSC survivors as a tribute and testament to all women who have faced this disease. The package will also direct consumers to the Nutra Nail® website where they will be able to read each woman's inspirational personal story and find hope in the face of tragedy.
