Phoenix, Ariz. (PRWEB) November 9, 2010
Massage Envy Phoenix, a co-op of 26 Phoenix massage centers and part of the nation’s largest massage therapy provider and largest spa franchise in the U. S., has raised more than $32,000 for the local community.
Phoenix area Massage Envy’s raised more than $20,000 through the annual Massage for the Cure event which took place on Tuesday, September 14 and benefited the Phoenix Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure, an organization which helps fund breast cancer education, screening and treatment initiatives across the country. Nationally, Massage Envy raised more than $477,000 for the breast cancer organization collected through the one-day fundraiser. One-hour therapeutic massages were offered for $49, with $15 from each massage directly benefiting the local Susan G. Komen for the Cure Affiliate. Additional donations were accepted and all proceeds collected in Arizona remained in the community. Since its inception six years ago, Massage for the Cure has raised more than $1.8 million for Susan G. Komen for the Cure.
Additionally, the Massage Envy Phoenix co-op recently concluded this year’s partnership with Phoenix Children’s Hospital. The co-op raised more than $12,000 throughout the campaign which took place during February, March, June, July and August. During this time, Phoenix area Massage Envy locations donated $1 from each 12-month massage therapy membership purchased. The money was raised as part of the KMLE 107.9 “Commitment to Kids” Campaign and will help provide hope, healing and serve the health care needs for children throughout Arizona.
“It is our pleasure to raise and donate money for the Phoenix Affiliate of Susan G. Komen and Phoenix Children’s Hospital,” said Steve Cook, Massage Envy’s regional developer in Arizona and Las Vegas. “Each center is locally owned and operated so we are committed to community reinvestment and look forward to continue fundraising opportunities for worthy causes in 2011.”
