Massage Envy Sponsors Local Southlake Team in Tarrant County’s Race for the Cure

Massage Envy has selected Stewart Title Southlake Sole Sisters as the winner of its Susan G. Komen Tarrant County Race for the Cure Sponsorship Sweepstakes. The 15-member team will receive a $1000 donation, co-branded team shirts and a free chair massage on race day from licensed therapists in the Massage Envy tent. Additionally, Massage Envy will provide gift cards as prizes for the team members who raise the most money. The Tarrant County Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure is dedicated to combating breast cancer by raising money to fund grants to local hospitals and community organizations that provide breast health education and breast cancer screening and treatment programs for medically underserved women. The first Tarrant County Race for the Cure was held in 1993 and raised $100,000. Today, the race is the largest charitable 5K race in Tarrant County, and the 2009 Race for the Cure had more than 14,000 participants and raised more than $1.5 million.

The Massage Envy Sponsorship Sweepstakes was created to benefit the 2010 Tarrant County Komen Race for the Cure on April 24 at Sundance Square in downtown Fort Worth. The contest took place from March 16 to April 2 and individuals throughout the Dallas/Fort Worth area nominated teams by posting a 300-word essay on Massage Envy DFW’s Facebook page.  The winning entry was submitted by Jenae Hibbard, a member of the Stewart Title Southlake Sole Sisters from Southlake, Texas. After joining together for team-building exercises for other charity events, the co-ed team members were surprised to learn that many of them have been directly affected by breast cancer – whether through helping family members and friends battle the disease or even by personally surviving breast cancer.

Discovering this information led them to band together again to support a cause that has touched so many lives. “Not one more baby should have to give up their mother to this disease and not one more man should lose the love of his life,” says Jenae Hibbard. “No one deserves this, so on April 24 we will join together to find away to stop breast cancer from affecting anyone ever again. We will walk for a mother, a wife, an acquaintance, a stranger – for anyone who has been devastated by this disease.”  To read Jenae’s winning essay, visit the Massage Envy DFW Facebook page at www.facebook.com/MassageDFW.

Massage Envy supports Susan G. Komen for the Cure on many of their events, including a unique annual event called Massage for the Cure.  Held each year in the fall, Massage for the Cure is a one-day event that raises money for the organization by offering discounted massages and donating a portion of each massage to Susan G. Komen for the Cure.  Many Massage Envy clinics and therapists have donated 100% of all revenue and fees for the day to support the charity.  “Breast cancer affects the lives of many people in our community,” says Lance O’Pry, Dallas/Fort Worth Regional Developer for Massage Envy. “We are proud to support the Tarrant County Race for the Cure and help raise awareness and funds that provide programs and research to help us see the end of this disease.”
