- Mothers Feted With Gifts and Brunch While Children Create Mother's Day
Cards for Moms
NEW YORK, May 10 /PRNewswire/ -- Sag Harbor® sportswear hosted a
Mother's Day brunch at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in Memphis,
Tenn. on Tuesday, as part of their continued support of the world's premier
pediatric cancer research center.
During the event, Sag Harbor presented St. Jude with a check in the
amount of $200,000 which represents a portion of the proceeds from the sale
of Sag Harbor's holiday 2006 cable sweater collection to support the St.
Jude 2006 Thanks and Giving® campaign.
Mothers and female caregivers of St. Jude patients attending the brunch
received Sag Harbor sweaters and a handbag from the spring 2007 collection,
as well as other accessories from the division. While the St. Jude mothers
were being pampered by Sag Harbor, the young patients created Mother's Day
cards to honor the women in their lives who encourage them during their
treatments at St. Jude.
"Sag Harbor is proud to support St. Jude Children's Research Hospital,"
said Paul Robb, Lifestyle Design Group chief executive officer. "Their
pioneering work to find cures and save children who are fighting cancer and
other catastrophic diseases is profoundly inspiring. Through our marketing
efforts we found that our associates, retail partners and consumers care
deeply about this cause, and we look forward to participating in the St.
Jude 2007 Thanks and Giving campaign."
The holiday sweaters were marketed with hangtags, indicating Sag
Harbor's commitment to guarantee a minimum donation of $200,000 to the St.
Jude 2006 Thanks and Giving campaign. Sag Harbor's holiday national ad
campaign featured Christie Brinkley wearing the St. Jude sweaters.
