Los Angeles-Long Beach, CA (1888PressRelease) April 19, 2012 - Friar Tux Shop and Savvi Formalwear are proud to unveil the "Pink Ribbon Collection" of Men's Formalwear to raise awareness and support for Susan G. Komen™ in the fight against breast cancer. Friar Tux Shop and participating Savvi members have designated special tuxedo styles to be their "Pink Ribbon Collection". These styles when chosen by customers will help contribute to a guaranteed minimum donation of $33,000 to Susan G. Komen in 2012.
Friar Tux Shop and Savvi Formalwear companies believe that within the celebratory nature of our business that there is an opportunity to reflect on the challenges many have faced, and couple that with an opportunity to give back. "In conceiving the idea for the "Pink Ribbon Collection" at Savvi's Summer Convention, attendees were asked how many knew of friends or family touched by breast cancer? The response had about 75% of the hands raised in the air. That was enough for Savvi Companies, made up of long standing businesses like Friar Tux Shop to reach out to Susan G. Komen to present the Pink Ribbon Collection idea. "said Greg Goodwin, President of Friar Tux Shop and Marketing Chairman of Savvi Formalwear.
Customers visiting Friar Tux Shop stores can look for the designated "Pink Ribbon" styles and choose them knowing that at their special event they have helped others.
