Emma Stone and Andy Cohen Co-Host 17th Annual EIF Revlon Run/Walk For Women
Emma Stone (Revlon Global Brand Ambassador) and Andy Cohen co-hosted the 17th Annual EIF Revlon Run/Walk for Women this morning in New York. Created by the Entertainment Industry Foundation (EIF), Revlon and Lilly Tartikoff, the EIF Revlon Run/Walk for Women has become one of the largest single-day fundraisers for women’s cancers in the United States. More than 15,000 participants joined the race to help raise critical funds to support women’s cancer research, counseling and outreach programs.
The event featured a special opening performance by recording artist Matt Goss and appearances by Karen Duffy and Denise Austin.
Registration is still open for the EIF Revlon Run/Walk for Women in
Los Angeles on Saturday, May 10, hosted by Halle Berry (Revlon Global
Brand Ambassador) with Christina Applegate.

Rite Aid to serve as platinum sponsor of the Entertainment Industry Foundation’s Revlon Run/Walk For Women events in May
- NYC and LA Events Benefit Women’s Cancer Research, Counseling and Outreach Programs
- Winning Nail Enamels from Revlon’s “Your Story, Your Shade” Contest Available Exclusively at Rite Aid
CAMP HILL, Pa.,
2014-5-1 — /EPR Retail News/ — For
the second straight year, Rite Aid will proudly serve as a platinum
sponsor of the Entertainment Industry Foundation’s Revlon Run/Walk For
Women events, which take place in New York and Los Angeles. This year,
the New York event will take place in Times Square and Central Park on
Saturday, May 3, and in Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum at Exposition Park
on Saturday, May 10. Since its inception in 1994, the EIF Revlon
Run/Walk for Women has raised and distributed more than $70 million to
support pioneering research, deliver diagnostic treatment services for
medically underserved women and provide support services to women facing
cancer.
Before both events, Denise Austin, celebrity fitness expert and
longtime friend of Rite Aid, will lead runners and walkers in warm-up
stretches.
“It is such an honor to once again be part of the EIF’s Revlon
Run/Walk for Women,” said fitness expert Denise Austin. “This year, I’m
here in support of my 32-year-old niece, Annie Arensdorf, who is
fighting cancer herself. So many women like her are fighting or have
fought cancer and they are the reason why it’s so important for us to do
all that we can in the fight against women’s cancers.”
During the month of October, Revlon held its “Your Story, Your Shade”
contest on Rite Aid’s Facebook page. Named by Jill Madura, “Diamond
Dee” is an iridescent pink shade. Madura drew inspiration from her
mother’s brave battle with stage 4 breast cancer. As the grand prize
winner, Madura has received an all-expenses paid trip to New York City
to attend the Revlon Run/Walk. Deborah Battle was named the contest’s
runner-up, giving a vibrant pink shade the name “Pretty in Strength.”
The name, according to Battle, was inspired by a coworker and best
friend who has shown the true meaning of what strength is as she is now
battling breast cancer for a second time in five years. Both Diamond Dee
and Pretty in Strength are available exclusively at Rite Aid’s 4,600
locations nationwide.
Participants can look for brochures at select local Rite Aid stores
in both cities to sign up for either event. Rite Aid customers can also
save $5 on the registration fee using the discount code “Rite Aid”
online at
www.RevlonRunWalk.org.
To encourage runners and walkers to pick up registration packets
early for the Los Angeles event, the Rite Aid store located at 1331
Wilshire Blvd. in Santa Monica is serving as an official Run/Walk packet
pickup location. On Saturday, May 3, from 2-6 p.m., visitors are able
to pick up their official T-shirts, grab beauty gift bags, and get free
mini-manicures using the winning Revlon nail enamels, Diamond Dee and
Pretty in Strength.
Rite Aid is encouraging participants to share their Revlon Run/Walk
experience socially for their chance to win a $50 Rite Aid gift card. To
enter, just tweet your #RevlonRunWalk photo to
@RiteAid from either the New York or Los Angeles event, where one winner will be chosen from each market.
