Orange County, CA- On Sunday September 25, 2011 Got Vape joined forces with the Orange County 20th Annual Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure in Newport Beach, California. With over 10,000 people in attendance, Got Vape proudly joined passionate in pink raising awareness and support.
The Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure Series is the world’s largest and most successful education and fundraising event for breast cancer ever created. It is premised around the crucial knowledge of early detection, prevention and self awareness.
“It’s great to see Got Vape supporting such a worthy cause and taking part in the walk”, says Amanda Veroz, Race for the Cure volunteer/participant. “It is so important for local organizations to get involved in their community”.
Celebrating breast cancer fighters, survivors and those who lost their battle, the Komen Race Series has a global reach, raising significant funds and recognition. The Komen Race for the Cure has grown from 800 participants, one race and one town in 1983 to 1.6 million participants, 140 races and four continents in 2010.
With lanyards, stickers, posters and brochures in hand Got Vape joined Dr. Oz and the masses in a very memorable race around Fashion Island. Since Got Vape’s inception, we have always realized the significance of practicing and promoting health education and awareness.
“We love Got Vape and they love us...now I can show my support for Breast Cancer Awareness wherever I go with my Got Vape pink lanyard”, said Tony Faranucci, Race for the Cure participant.
Got Vape donated to the Orange County, Sacramento, Denver and New York Chapters of the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure.
We are looking forward to the 2012 Race for the Cure, see you there!
