The Shops at Montebello today announced its Spring 2018 More Than Pink movement in support of Susan G. Komen and the fight against breast cancer. As part of its pledge to donate at least $1 million each year in 2017 and 2018, more than 170 participating Simon Malls®, The Mills® and Premium Outlets® nationwide will once again be participating in a range of fundraising activities during the months of April and May.
“We are thrilled to launch our Spring 2018 More Than Pink initiatives and have been overwhelmed by the ongoing positive support this movement has garnered with our shoppers, retailers and employees to support Susan G. Komen in its tireless efforts to reduce breast cancer deaths,” said Enna Allen, Simon’s Vice President of Brand Management.
From April 14 to May 20, visitors to The Shops at Montebello will be able to participate in a variety of programs to help support Susan G. Komen. Additionally, guests to the center will notice The Shops at Montebello’s Guest Services dressed up in pink in support of the worthy cause.
“It has been wonderful to see the positive response that the More Than Pink movement has generated,” said Marida Petitjean, director of marketing and business development at The Shops at Montebello. “Our shoppers, retailers and employees have embraced the opportunities we’ve offered to support Susan G. Komen in its tireless efforts to reduce breast cancer deaths, and we look forward to continuing that momentum this year.”
More Than Pink Hero Wall (located near Guest Services): An opportunity for survivors and their families to visually celebrate and honor the hero who inspires and uplifts them through their fight with breast cancer. For a minimum $1 donation, shoppers will receive a pink sticker on which they can write the name of the ‘More Than Pink’ Hero and place it on the wall. All proceeds go to Susan G. Komen.
