Horizon of hope 2009 (WITH PICS)

Info on the 2009 Horizon of Hope baskets are out. This is the 15th year Longaberger has supported Horizon of Hope, you can find more info on Horizon of Hope by checking out this post.
This year will feature 2 baskets, one in the shape of an inkwell, the other a desk or vanity basket

There will also be pink pie plates, pink measuring cups and a fully lined Horizon of Hope tote, and the pink travel mug will be making a comeback (I'm excited!) The liners will be made in the USA 

I love pink, and support breast cancer awareness, so I'm super excited!

Longaberger Supports Breast Cancer Study

Horizon of Hope is Longaberger's charitable line that supports breast cancer research, awareness and healthy living. Horizon of Hope started in 1995 as a partnership between The Longaberger Company, and the American Cancer Society. Every year Longaberger designs and creates a basket traditionally designed in Light Pink and White, or Brown, and $2 from every basket go to the American Cancer Society.

As of 2008 the campaign had raised nearly $13 million and provided approximately 19 million women with important and potentially life saving information. The money raised goes towards research and education to help win the fight against breast cancer. Specifically it tries to Improve the quality and access to mammography services, Improve breast imaging quality standards, improve the quality of clinical breast examination, improve the quality of life for young survivors and women with breast cancer recurrence. Horizon of Hope is also helping the American Cancer Society research Lymphedema, which is a chronic and debilitating swelling of the arm caused by the destruction of the lymphatic vessels during the removal of lymph nodes or damage to them by radiation.
