JACKSONVILLE, FL -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 10/07/08 -- Real men wear pink. That's the message behind a line of men's ties designed by breast cancer survivor Diane Katzman, available at all Stein Mart (NASDAQ: SMRT) stores in October, Breast Cancer Awareness Month. A portion of tie sales will be donated to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
"When a woman is diagnosed with breast cancer, it affects everyone who cares about her, including the men in her life," said Jay Stein, chairman of Stein Mart, Inc. "We want to show our support for women battling this disease. With these fashion-forward ties, men can look great while helping to raise funds for a cure."
The ties are 100% silk woven in a variety of patterns and solids. Each tie sports the Real Men Wear Pink(TM) brand label and tie wrap. The ties are available at all Stein Mart locations while supplies last.
Founded in 1993 by Evelyn H. Lauder, The Breast Cancer Research Foundation is an independent, not-for-profit 501(c) (3) organization. More than 85 cents of every dollar donated goes to breast cancer research and awareness programs. For the seventh straight year, the foundation has received Charity Navigator's highest rating, outperforming over 5,000 other charities. For more information, go to www.bcrfcure.org.
To help raise awareness and funds for breast cancer research and support, Stein Mart is offering a number of "pink ribbon" items throughout its stores. To find the nearest store go to www.steinmart.com.
