Lee National Denim Day

Friday, October 8, 2010
Denim Day logo Lee National Denim Day is a one-day event dedicated to the fight against breast cancer. It’s inspired by the women, men, family and friends who have been touched by the disease and whose lives are forever changed because of it.

Over the past 14 years, millions of individuals across the country have donated $5 and worn jeans, raising nearly $80 million. But the fight is not over.

The Cancer Support Community, united The Wellness Community and Gilda’s Club Worldwide, is proud to be 2010 beneficiary of Lee National Denim Day. Now in its 15th year, Denim Day has raised nearly $80 million for breast cancer research.

A portion of the funds go to the Cancer Support Community to provide emotional and social support to all people affected by cancer.
