Garth Brooks Album Benefits Komen!
October 23, 2007

Garth Brooks has joined forces with Susan G. Komen for the Cure in the promise to end breast cancer forever with the release of the “Pink Edition” of The Ultimate Hits album. The album is a new 3-disc set, and contains 30 classics, 3 new songs and a bonus track on two CDs. The set also includes a DVD with videos for all 33 songs, including new and never-before-seen footage. Each CD is packaged with important information to help you protect your breast health, and the health of people you love.

For every “Pink Edition” of The Ultimate Hits album sold, $10 will go to Susan Komen for the Cure. And when purchased using the promotional code elpaso, $5 comes to us at Komen’s El Paso Affiliate! Just $10 at a time, we have the opportunity to raise millions for vital breast cancer research and community outreach programs.

The album is currently available for pre-orders, and will ship on November 6th. The Pink Edition is available exclusively at Komen’s online Promise Shop. To order now and reserve yours today, go to www.komen.org/garth and enter the promotional code elpaso.

Together with Garth Brooks, we’ll keep moving toward a world without breast cancer!
