MASSAGE ENVY RAISED $28,582 FOR SUSAN G. KOMEN FOR THE CURE
“Massage For The Cure Day” provided 875 free massages to benefit breast cancer research

Massage Envy partnered with the St. Louis and Mid-Missouri Affiliates of Susan G. Komen For The Cure for Massage for the Cure Day on August 6.  Massage Envy raised $28,582 by providing 875 free therapeutic massages on a donation-only basis at 12 Massage Envy locations in St. Louis and Columbia. 

 “Massage Envy is thrilled about the success of Massage for the Cure Day,” said John Leonesio, founder and CEO of Massage Envy.  “Too many women have lived in fear of breast cancer for far too long.  Our partnership with Susan G. Komen For The Cure raised much needed dollars to fund mammograms and breast cancer research in the St. Louis region and it is my hope that our annual event will raise awareness about the importance of early detection and early treatment of breast cancer.” 

 “The outpouring of support for Massage for the Cure Day was humbling,” said Dan Lowery, regional developer for Massage Envy.  “All area Massage Envy locations were booked to capacity, which illustrates how determined people are to find a cure for breast cancer.  It is an honor to present a check to Susan G. Komen For The Cure.”
