Bulgari and W Magazine Hold Benefit for Sister to Sister
Bulgari and W Magazine held a reception to view the Bulgari Spring Accessory Collection on Thursday, April 3, 2008 at The Collection at Chevy Chase. Mrs. Irene Pollin, founder and President of Sister to Sister, addressed the guests and spoke of the impact that Sister to Sister has had since it’s inception in 2000. Since our founding, over 175,000 women have attended our National Women’s Heart Health Fairs and 70,000 women have received free cardiovascular screenings. This reception was a wonderful opportunity to reach out to women in the Washington DC area who were not aware of the importance of preventing heart disease.
Bulgari is dedicated to raising awareness of heart disease in women and has donated a percentage of the proceeds from the evening’s event through April 7 to the Sister to Sister Foundation. Their generous donation will contribute to Sister to Sister’s mission of providing free heart-health screenings to women across the country. Sister to Sister would like to thank Bulgari and W Magazine for their dedication to this most important cause, as heart disease is the leading killer of women in the United States.
