Imposters Classic Faux Jewelry Announces Breast Cancer Awareness Program To Support the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation
AURORA, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 1, 1997--Impostors Classic Faux Jewelry, a specialty jewelry retailer with 38 stores nationwide announced the launch of their support of Breast Cancer Awareness and Research this month.
''We are introducing the program in October in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month,'' said Sissel Greenberg, president and CEO. ''We are offering our version of the breast cancer awareness pin in all of our retail locations and are thrilled to contribute 100% of profits from the sale of this pin to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation,'' she continued. The $10 pin is a gold overlay lapel pin in the style of the breast cancer awareness ribbon and has pale pink pave stones. ''Not only is the pin the most recognized symbol for breast cancer awareness, but it is also a small and classic design so that women can easily wear it with their other accessories to demonstrate their support of the cause,'' Greenberg says.
''We chose to support breast cancer because it is now the leading cause of death for women ages 35 to 54,'' Kathleen Jordan, marketing director said. ''Our customers are the demographic most affected by this issue, as are our staff.'' Over 90% of employees in the nationwide Impostors chain are women, and of these women, 45% have been personally affected by breast cancer, either from dealing with it themselves or someone close to them. ''We are proud to support the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation in its efforts to raise awareness and support research programs,'' Jordan says. ''The Foundation has a stellar reputation in supporting women and in raising breast health awareness through its 'Race for the Cure' series held in cities across America.''
Impostors stores specialize in classic faux jewelry inspired by world famous designers including Cartier, Tiffany and Co., Yurman, Bulgari and more. The chain has opened thirteen stores in the last twelve months. One reason for Impostors' continuing success is the outstanding value, quality and design the merchandise offers. Most pieces are made with solid 14k gold, 22k gold over sterling silver, genuine sterling silver or heavy layered gold over jeweler's bronze. Expensive gemstones and diamonds are replaced by the finest cubic zirconia or Austrian crystals, which provides customers with an expensive and classic look without an expensive price tag.
The company operates stores in Florida, Washington DC, Dallas, Seattle, New Orleans, New Jersey, St. Louis, Denver, Las Vegas and throughout California.
