Show That You're `Sticking Up' for Breast Cancer Research; Introducing Pink Ribbon Post-it Super Sticky Notes

In an effort to help further the groundbreaking research conducted by City of Hope Cancer Center, the Office Supplies Division of 3M has introduced Post-it Super Sticky Notes imprinted with a pink ribbon, the universal symbol for breast cancer awareness.

These special pink ribbon Post-it Super Sticky Notes are available in a three-pack and single-pack. Twenty cents from every specially marked single-pack sold and 50 cents from every specially marked three-pack sold will be donated to City of Hope Cancer Center for cancer research.

The pink ribbon Post-it Super Sticky Notes can be found in most retail outlets and office superstores. The typical retail price of the single-pack is $1.99, and the typical retail price of the three-pack is $3.99.

In addition to the donations from the pink ribbon notes, the Office Supplies Division will also be creating the World's Largest Pink Ribbon - standing approximately 70 feet tall on a billboard in Times Square, and constructed out of 75,000 Post-it Super Sticky Notes. As a result of this initiative, the Office Supplies Division will donate an additional $75,000 to City of Hope Cancer Center -- one of America's best cancer hospitals according to U.S. News and World Report and a leading research and treatment center for cancer and other life-threatening diseases.

Post-it Super Sticky Notes stick to a variety of vertical surfaces. Thanks to a newly designed and patented adhesive technology, Post-it Super Sticky Notes are ideal for creating self-reminders, notes to others, or lists for the home or office, since they can be placed practically anywhere - from car dashboards and computer monitors, to wooden doors, telephones, leather briefcases and mirrors! Post-it Super Sticky Notes remove cleanly from most surfaces, with no residue left behind. They come in a range of sizes and colors.
