Nautica has collaborated with the Susan G. Komen Foundation to provide custom designed pink robes as pledge prizes for for those that raise a significant amount of money for the cause, during the Race for the Cure event.  This year there is another way for supporters to participate.  To enable those who are unable, or unwilling to do the actual race, there is another less strenuous option.  It is called the  Sleep in for the Cure

sleep in for the cure bathrobe

For those who prefer to snooze rather than lace up their running shoes, sign up for Sleep In for the Cure and help run breast cancer out of town from home or wherever you’ll be on September 12! Support Komen Greater NYC from the comfort of your own bed and still have an impact on the fight against breast cancer.

Participants who register for this program will receive a Race t-shirt and a special bib and, best of all, everything will be mailed to you. Register as a Sleep In for the Cure participant, by choosing the “Sleep in for the Cure” option as your participation type.

You can join any regular Race team as a Sleep In for the Cure member – just choose the “Sleep in for the Cure as a Team Member” participation type. You will even be eligible for pledge prizes for your team or individual fundraising efforts.

The prize was provided by Nautica, but Nautica is not a sponsor, administrator, or involved in any other way with this giveaway. All opinions expressed in the post are my own and not those of Nautica.
