IMAN Cosmetics Partners with ICC
"We are pleased to have IMAN Cosmetics as a new partner and we appreciate their involvement this year in helping to educate, bring awareness and raise money for the work that ICC does with diverse communities in the fight against cancer." -Dr. Jocelyn Elders-Former US Surgeon General
For Breast Cancer Awareness Month 2011, IMAN Cosmetics introduces its first annual Pink Ribbon Partnership Program. IMAN Cosmetics has joined forces with 3RX Skin Therapy and Amoy Couture Hair to help raise awareness, support and funding for cancer patients by supporting The Intercultural Cancer Council (ICC). During the month of October, IMAN Cosmetics will donate $1.00 for every purchase of IMAN Afterglow Sheer Bronzing Powder, plus support the ICC with training, events and media outreach to help save and touch lives around the country. This product is available at Target, Walgreens, Wal-Mart, Sears, Ulta, Duane Reade and major department stores across the country. We hope that at least 1,000,000 women of all colors will support our efforts to address cancer disparities in underserved populations through the purchase of products included in the Pink Ribbon Partnership Program.
More information about this program, and the products included, may be found on the IMAN Cosmetics website (click on the Pink Ribbon tab to view partnership program details). Please share this announcement with your friends, colleagues and organizations asking them to pass it on.

The CCC is college based, student-led organization that was formed in April 2004, upon experiencing the ICC's 9th Biennial Symposium on Minorities, the Medically Underserved & Cancer in Washington, DC. The CCC focuses on the elimination of health disparities among ethnic minorities, the medically underserved, and promotes cancer awareness among these populations regardless of socioeconomic status.
