CHARITY / LUNGevity

Lung cancer is the leading cancer killer in the U.S, killing almost twice as many women as breast cancer. The disease has affected many in our company and we are committed to help find a cure. In honor of Lung Cancer Awareness Month, 2011, we partnered with LUNGevity Foundation, an organization dedicated to ending lung cancer now. Our efforts included:

• From Friday November 25 through Monday November 28, 2011, we donated 5 percent of all sales in stores and online to LUNGevity Foundation, including gift card sales.
• Everything But Water was a sponsor of LUNGevity’s Breathe Deep D.C., a 5K walk on the National Mall. Many of our employees, including President and CEO Sheila Arnold, participated in the walk. The walk raised more than $300,000 for LUNGevity Foundation.

LUNGevity Foundation is working for a world where no one dies of lung cancer by funding the most promising research into the early detection and successful treatment of lung cancer. The organization also supports patients, families and caregivers through the Lung Cancer Support Community, the largest dedicated social network offering support to anyone touched by lung cancer.
