2009 Saks Key to the Cure

2009 KEY TO THE CURE

Saks Fifth Avenue, Chevy Chase and Suburban Hospital announce the
2009 KEY TO THE CURE Kick-Off

Thursday, October 15 @ 6pm

Saks Fifth Avenue Chevy Chase

Last night I attended this wonderful event – a night of fabulous shopping, an open bar, and raffle prizes. Washington women turned out in their best black and pink to support the women’s cancer programs at Suburban Hospital. Honorary chairs of the 2009 Key to the Cure Committee were Linda Evans (FOX5), Barbara Harrison (NBC4), Alison Starling (ABC7), and Andrea Roane (CBS9). Guests tried their hands at the “Key to the Treasure” Raffle, watched a fashion show on the second floor, and indulged in delicious culinary tastings from our capitol city’s best chefs, with restaurants and bakeries including Hook, Tacklebox, Redwood, Lotus, SweetGreen, and Georgetown Cupcake. It was a delightful way to support breast cancer research.

Every year I make sure to buy the Key to the Cure t-shirt, and I’ve now added this year’s to my collection of running t-shirts! The shirt is available exclusively at Saks, and over $30 from your purchase of this cotton tee, with exclusive Michael Kors design, will benefit local women’s cancer charities. You can buy it at Saks online as well as in their retail stores. Saks Fifth Avenue will donate 2% of sales up to $250,000 over the shopping weekend (10/15/09-10/18/09) to local and national women's cancer charity partners.
