Starting today, wireless phone users can help raise funds and awareness for the fight against breast cancer by purchasing pink wireless phones from Qwest and SANYO. Ten percent of all retail sales of the phones through October will be donated to Susan G. Komen for the Cure, with a minimum donation of $50,000 up to a maximum donation of $100,000. The Salt Lake City Race for the Cure takes place on May 12.

"A key to our success at Komen for the Cure is that we collaborate with a variety of organizations to provide creative ways for people to make a difference in the fight against breast cancer," said Cindy Schneible, vice president of resource development at Susan G. Komen for the Cure. "We are proud to have the opportunity to partner with Qwest and SANYO to allow wireless phone users to make a bold statement about breast cancer awareness and a valuable contribution to breast cancer research and community outreach programs."

With three different models to choose from, Qwest customers can choose the pink phone that fits their individual style. The sleek, ultra-slim SANYO Katana offers Bluetooth wireless technology, a built-in digital camera, and a high-resolution 2.2-inch color display. The SCP-2400 and SCP-3100 offer high-quality speakerphones and walkie-talkie-style communication for keeping in touch with family and friends.

Qwest and SANYO will release two additional pink phones that will be part of this partnership later this summer.
