SmartStyle Sponsoring CUREiosity event for Siteman Cancer Center

SmartStyle and the Regis Foundation for Breast Cancer Research (RFBCR) are delighted to partner with the Alvin J. Siteman Cancer Center for the 9th annual CUREiosity, the party for a cure, to be held on Friday, November 7, 2014, at the Four Seasons Hotel in St. Louis. In the past eight years, CUREiosity has raised a net of over $340,000 for the Alvin J. Siteman Cancer Center. The partnership is part of SmartStyle’s ongoing commitment to find a cure for breast cancer.

“SmartStyle is dedicated to supporting breast cancer research. Our stylists and staff live and work in the St. Louis area and we are very proud to be a part of this year’s CUREiosity,” said Terri Gilstrap, Regis Corporation’s regional vice president.

All proceeds from CUREiosity benefit cancer research and patient care at the Alvin J. Siteman Cancer Center. The donation from SmartStyle and RFBCR will support the cancer center’s research and programming efforts for breast cancer.

The RFBCR funds groundbreaking research at nationally recognized centers. The focus of this research is on prevention, early diagnosis, treatment and finding a cure. In addition, it supports institutions that assist and treat patients with breast cancer. Since it was founded in 1994, RFBCR has raised over $10 million.
