Brookdale Senior Living employees share their stories of why they chose to be casted for this very special event.

Keep A Breast Foundation joins the Girlz Garage at the Vans Warped Tour for the ninth year on the road in an effort to educate young fans about breast cancer prevention. KAB’s highly successful traveling educational booth will be fully interactive with contests, special guest appearances, charitable partnerships, and engaging ways to learn about breast health.

Highlights of KAB at the Girlz Garage at the Vans Warped Tour include:

Contests:
As part of Keep A Breast’s Music For Awareness Campaign, Keep a Breast and Fox will facilitate Shot In the Pit 2009, a photo contest during the 2009 Warped Tour to pick three talented amateur photographer winners to have their photos printed and displayed across the country. Fans can also learn about ways to throw his or her very own benefit show in support of the cause.

Guest Appearances:
Craig Owens from Chiodos will be doing acoustic performances in the Girlz Garage tent at most stops on the tour while Kynt and Vyxsin from CBS/Travel Channel’s The Amazing Race will be joining on select dates to help spread the message and sign autographs. KAB is the featured charity on ModLife.com so expect to see your favorite bands stopping by the tent to do live video broadcasting, mobile updating and twittering from the Girlz Garage.

Charitable Partnerships:
Socialvibe.com will be on the road for this year’s Warped Tour launching a new grassroots movement called I Wear Pink – a way for you to wear and share your support for Keep A Breast while raising funds through your SocialVibe account. Visit the SocialVibe tent to receive information on how to earn donations for KAB as well as draw your own breast cast design to be uploaded to Socialvibe.com

Keep A Breast will also be partnering with fellow Warped Tour traveling charity Peta2 whom will be launching their summer campaign, Breasts Not Animal Tests, centered on Keep A Breast’s commitment to not use any percentage of donations to fund animal experimentation. It will include a co-branded campaign leaflet, tee and microsite.

Keep A Breast Foundation’s outreach efforts will also receive a boost from the Surf Industry Manufacturers Association (SIMA), who have selected the Keep A Breast Foundation as a SIMA Humanitarian Fund grant recipient based on its ability to communicate the importance of breast cancer prevention and awareness to younger generations through music, art and action sports.

“I Love Boobies” bracelets provided by national retail chain Spencer’s will be available for $1.00 for a second year in a row. 100% of the proceeds will go to the Keep A Breast Foundation with over $225,000 raised for KAB to date. For this year’s Warped Tour, Spencer’s Volunteer Army will provide two volunteers at each stop that has raised the most money for KAB and really showed a passion for philanthropy in store.

Education:
To kick off Warped Tour, Keep A Breast introduced their new video titled “Love Your Boobies” at the Warped Tour Kickoff Party featuring Warped Tour musicians informing fans on the importance of having a positive relationship with your breasts and healthy tips for breast health. Additionally, Keep A Breast will be returning with the “This is My Story” campaign, allowing youth around the nation to share their various, unique experiences with breast cancer. Concert Goers can also learn how to feel for breast changes using The Breastology Bag™ interactive sculpture breasts that stimulate the feel of harmful lumps versus the feeling of fibrocystic lumps.

Hello again! What another amazing night for Keep A Breast’s Shot in the Pit presented by Fox and Unite the United. We are so thankful to be able to work with Rob Hitt to make this evening a success at this past Tuesdays party at Angels & Kings on Trainwreck Tuesday. The night was perfect! Everyone at the venue was very helpful and seemed excited about the exhibition and all that Keep A Breast does.
So many wonderful friends came out to show their support for the evening including our dear friend Will Noon from Straylight Run and Liz Nord from the MTV Choose or Lose campaign. We were stoked to have resident DJ’s Rob Hitt, Erica Dagley & Baya Voce keeping us dancing all night long! We only have one more event to go to close this exhibition…then we will be auctioning off breast casts and photographs of your favorite Vans Warped Tour bands. The auction will be online at www.kab.mfa.org from Nov. 26th – Dec. 6th. Please make sure to join us for the final closing party at Fox on Dec. 4th.
Looking forward to seeing you all on the road!
