Kelly Ripa has launched her latest charity initiative with Electrolux to raise money for the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund.
The star is asking you to design a virtual banana split on her website, and each day you do, Electrolux will donate $1 to the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund. Plus, you’ll be entered for a chance to win the daily prize, $50 toward sweet summer treats, AND the grand prize – the ultimate kitchen “split” – the new stand-alone refrigerator and freezer from Electrolux.
Kelly started supporting the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund after someone she knew contracted the disease. In 2008 she began a role as spokesperson for Electrolux washers and dryers, some proceeds from the sales of which will benefit the Fund.
“Thousands of women are affected by this deadly disease every year, including someone close to me,” said Ripa. “But there’s hope. The Ovarian Cancer Research Fund helps women fight and beat this disease. They fund research that will improve chances for an early diagnosis, giving hope to patients, family, and friends.”
