The sterling silver necklace, featuring a 1/2\" petal pink resin square containing a hand-formed silver ribbon, can be purchased online at www.GiveSimple.com. A portion of the proceeds from the necklace will directly benefit Give Simple's official national charity, Susan G. Komen for the Cure.
"Like so many of our customers, designer Laura Gibson (Metalsgirl) and the Give Simple Girls have been directly touched by breast cancer -- through mothers, grandmothers, sisters and friends -- and we want to do our part to encourage women to live well and support breast cancer awareness," said Give Simple Founder Kendra Wright. "The necklace is a subtle and beautiful statement in the fight against breast cancer, a perfect way to remember those we lost, as well as to honor the disease's courageous survivors."
In addition to its financial commitment, Give Simple is a corporate sponsor of, and will participate in, the Austin Race for the Cure on Sunday, November 4. The team will be comprised of Give Simple employees and local customers, and Give Simple will print special team t-shirts for its local customers who walk or run with the team.
Give Simple will also encourage involvement for non-local customers by offering 15% off orders for customers participating in their local Race for the Cure. To receive the discount, customers may email their registration confirmation to info@givesimple.com. The Give Simple Story The frilly edged white platter was, in a word (okay two words), utterly perfect. Kendra Wright, a marketing consultant and \"serial entrepreneur,\" first spied the Flirt platter in New Orleans and scooped it up for her kitchen back home. She later emailed the manufacturer and learned that they weren\'t available online. If she wanted another platter, she\'d have to visit Little Rock.
Kendra set off for Arkansas and decided that the pretty white platters were simply too good not to share. With the help of her sister, Tracy Brown, her close friend Karen Beller and her fabulous business partners (plus a whole lot of candle sniffing and serious shopping) Give Simple was born.

About Komen for the Cure Nancy G. Brinker promised her dying sister, Susan G. Komen, that she would do everything in her power to end breast cancer forever. In 1982, that promise became Susan G. Komen for the Cure and launched the global breast cancer movement. Today, Komen for the Cure is the world\'s largest grassroots network of breast cancer survivors and activists fighting to save lives, empower people, ensure quality care for all and energize science to find the cures. Thanks to events like the Komen Race for the Cure, we have invested nearly $1 billion to fulfill our promise, becoming the largest source of nonprofit funds dedicated to the fight against breast cancer in the world.
