Magnet Works Introduces “Cure Them All” Flag to Benefit Siteman Cancer Center

Magnet Works, a leading provider of indoor and outdoor home décor accessories, is introducing a “Cure Them All” garden flag at this summer’s gift and home markets. All proceeds from the sale of this new garden flag will be donated to the Discovery Fund at Siteman Cancer Center. This special fund allows scientists to respond quickly to the most promising research projects, often before traditional sources of funding become available.

The flag, designed by artist Chrissie Grace, features a multicolored ribbon, representing several different forms of cancer. “We wanted this flag to raise awareness for everyone who is affected by cancer, regardless of the type. Chrissie’s unique patchwork style is a beautiful symbol of unity, strength, and perseverance for all those hoping for a cure,” said Sue Todd, President and Art Curator at Magnet Works.

To further raise awareness for those affected by cancer, Magnet Works will have a special “Tree of Hope” display in each of their AmericasMart Atlanta showroom locations. Each display will feature eight uniquely colored Awareness Ribbons representing different forms of cancer. Market attendees are invited to choose a ribbon and tie it onto one of the display’s tree branches in honor of a loved one.

In addition to the “Cure Them All” flag, Magnet Works’ Studio M division is introducing a 20-inch Survivor Art Pole, designed by artist Stephanie Burgess. The new pole is a reminder to “believe in the cure,” as is noted on one of the pole’s four sides. “As a breast cancer survivor herself, Stephanie held this project very close to her heart. She wanted to create something that could serve as a symbol of hope, empowerment, and positivity. This pole makes an unforgettable gift for a loved one who has been affected by cancer,” said Anne Brown, Director of Product Development.

All of the new items will be on display in the company’s two showroom locations: The Gardens, 9-B-84 Building 2 and Link2Sales, 1600 Building 2. For more information about Magnet Works’ Give Back Program visit magnetworks.com/giveback.
