West Hollywood, CA–September 13, 2011—Cancer Schmancer today announced a partnership with JPSelects.com, the newest online shopping site for socially aware and eco-chic fashion, beauty and luxury products created by Paul Mitchell’s founder, John Paul DeJoria, to have a weeklong charity event for Cancer Awareness. For one week, beginning on Monday, September 26 through October 2, consumers can support cancer awareness fundraising by purchasing sustainably-created fashion, beauty supplies, and luxury products on JPSelects.com. All profits from sales will benefit this year’s Cancer Schmancer “Trash Cancer” campaign, an educational initiative to help individuals live life less toxic as smart consumers. Additionally, JPSelects.com will be selling a limited edition bracelet from Nialaya, which will be exclusively sold on JPSelects.com the entire month of October with all proceeds benefiting the “Trash Cancer” campaign.
 
This philanthropic event is co-sponsored by eco-chic lifestyle magazine, Coco Eco, and kicks off the partnerships with an exclusive cover photo shoot with Cancer Schmancer’s spokesperson, Fran Drescher. In the September/October issue, Drescher will be featured wearing the limited edition bracelet created by Nialaya, which is handmade in Los Angeles with fair trade materials from around the world.
 
“Cancer Schmancer was created to provide cancer education and awareness,” says Fran Drescher, Founder of Cancer Schmancer.“Our mission is to arm women with powerful information, making them medicalconsumersas opposed to passive patients.

About Cancer Schmancer
After surviving her own experience with cancer, actress/activist visionary Fran Drescher decided to share her story so that what happened to her wouldn’t happen to others. After writing her book, Cancer Schmancer, she realized the book was not the end but instead the beginning of a life mission to improve women’s healthcare in America. Shortly thereafter, she founded the Cancer Schmancer Movement, a non-profit organization dedicated to saving women’s lives through prevention and early detection of cancer. One in every three women will be diagnosed with cancer in her lifetime. (www.cancerschmancer.org)
