well red

February is National Heart Awareness Month and this sassy little red frame is a perfect way to show your support.

The Kimtastic was created to celebrate the life of our own Kim Craft, who died 2 years ago of a heart attack at the young age of 42. With your purchase of the Kimtastic reading glasses, eyebobs will donate 50% of the proceeds to combat this disease. By partnering with The Heart Truth®, our hope is to increase awareness of this deadly disease and prevent another company or family from suffering the loss of a loved one from women’s heart disease.

Earlier this month the Chicago Sun Times reported “Cardiovascular disease claims more lives than the next five leading causes of death combined, including all forms of cancer. Consider this: One in 30 American women will die of breast cancer. About one in three will die from cardiovascular disease.” Read the entire article here: http://www.suntimes.com/lifestyles/2025208,FIT-News-heart03.article
