NA-KD + Know Your Lemons Team Up For October to Educate for Early Detection of Breast Cancer!

PRESS RELEASE

OCTOBER 2022

NA-KD launches a lifesaving collaboration

during breast cancer awareness month: a charity

campaign with the global organisation, ‘Know

Your Lemons’

NA-KD takes action over October in order to highlight Breast Cancer Awareness month. Together with the non-profit charity Know Your Lemons, the goal is to educate people about breast cancer signs and symptoms which many are still not familiar with. To fund their work, NA-KD will donate 5% of their pink collection over the month of October directly to Know Your Lemons. Check out the collection: https://www.na-kd.com/en

With an aspiration to draw attention to Breast Cancer Awareness month over October, NA-KD

teamed up with the non-profit charity Know Your Lemons, an organisation which educates

people around the world by creating and sharing accessible infographics that detail the

symptoms and signs of breast cancer. Using different shaped lemons, they compare them to

breasts affected by cancer; not only like lumps and bumps, but also the less obvious changes in

colour, size and shape.

“For us at NA-KD it is completely a given to be involved and support the important work Know

Your Lemons does, this is a partnership we are very proud and happy to be a part of. Together,

we contribute to more people surviving cancer, “ says NAKD’s Global PR Manager, Julia Alqvist.

Know Your Lemons have also created an award-winning Breast Health Breast Self Exam App

that tracks your period, talks about the 12 signs of breast cancer, early detection, customizes

your screening plan, prepares and books your mammogram.

To support Know Your Lemons lifesaving work, NA-KD will support their work by donating 5% of their

pink collection sales to Know Your Lemons over the month of October. NA-KD will also be encouraging

customers to download the new "Know Your Lemons" breast health app designed to educate with a

twist of lemon for early detection.

"To improve early detection, it's critical for us to work with strong brands that are willing to invest

in women's health," said Dr. Corrine Ellsworth-Beaumont, Founder of the Know Your Lemons

Foundation. "We are so pleased to be working with NA-KD who is supporting our work in such

an impactful way through financial support and leveraging their network to make sure as many

customers and employees are educated as possible about the symptoms of breast cancer. It's

truly a lifesaving collaboration!"

This lifesaving collaboration is one of the most important for NA-KD and will start the 1st of

October. With great honour, NA-KD is looking forward to being a part of the journey towards

educating people and saving lives together with Know Your Lemons.

The launch date for the collaboration is: October 1st
