During September, Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month, Electrolux and Kelly Ripa are holding a text-a-thon to help raise support for OCRF.
"Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month is the perfect opportunity to remind people that we need to raise funds to help find a method of early detection, and ultimately a cure, for ovarian cancer. It's a deadly disease that affects thousands of women and their families each year," notes Ripa. "But there's hope. That's why I'm so grateful to Electrolux and so many others for stepping up once again to help me raise money and awareness to support OCRF."
Throughout September, Americans can donate $5 to the cause
1 by texting the word "KELLY" to 85944 from their mobile phones - or logging on to
www.kelly-confidential.com. To drive participation and help spread the word, each day people log on to the Web site, they will be entered for a chance to win a luxury front load washer and dryer from Electrolux in Turquoise Sky, the color inspired by the teal ribbon of ovarian cancer awawreness.
Also during September, visitors to Kelly Confidential can help Ripa spread awareness for this important cause by sending a virtual T-shirt to a friend. For every "T-mail" sent, Electrolux will donate $1 to the OCRF
2. Visitors can also purchase a limited edition T-shirt designed by Ripa; 100% of the proceeds from the sale of the T-shirts will go to OCRF.
