Hunter's Specialties Donates to the Susan G. Komen Foundation

In 2007 Hunter's Specialties began offering for sale a variety of hats with both the Hunter's Specialties and breast cancer awareness pink ribbon logos. 100% of the profits from the sale of the hats is donated to the Susan G. Komen Foundation to raise awareness about breast cancer issues and to search for a cure.

In 2009 Hunter's Specialties is proud to report they were able to write a check to the Susan G. Komen Foundation for $13,366.20.

"We're very excited about the success of the program," said Carman Forbes, Hunter's Specialties Co-CEO. "This shows the overwhelming support that is out there in the hunting community for this issue. We certainly appreciate our customers taking part in this search for a cure with us."

Breast cancer is currently one of the leading causes of death among women, with nearly 200,000 cases diagnosed each year and 40,000 fatalities.

To make a donation by purchasing a hat, consumers can go to the Hunter's Specialties web site at www.hunterspec.com and click on the H.S. Logo Shop Link.
