Brillo® Announces Second Annual Partnership with The Breast Cancer Research Foundation®

WALLED LAKE, Mich., Sept. 21, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Brillo®, one of the world's best-known household cleaning brands, announced their partnership with The Breast Cancer Research Foundation® (BCRF) for the second year in a row. In their continued partnership, Brillo will be donating five cents for each purchase of specially marked packages of Brillo® Steel Wool Soap Pads and Brillo® Estracell® Sponges up to $50,000. Products are available nationwide at Walmart stores and other fine retailers.  

"We're honored to partner with BCRF once again this year in support of October's breast cancer awareness month," said Jeremy Bakken, spokesperson for Brillo. "BCRF is dedicated to preventing and finding a cure for breast cancer and with the help of consumers purchasing Brillo products we're able to contribute to their great cause."

Brillo provides homemakers with an array of products to tackle multiple household cleaning projects around the home including Brillo Steel Wool Soap Pads and Brillo Estracell Sponges.

Estracell® sponge material is formulated from a proprietary formula to form a product similar in composition to a natural ocean sponge. It creates a more sanitary line of sponge products and offers a range of simple yet effective cleaning solutions. The unique cell structure picks up dirt, rinses cleaner and dries out faster, eliminating the perfect breeding condition for bacteria and fungal growth.
