The McGee Group Launches the newest Vera Bradley® “Think Pink” Sunglass Collection.

Marietta, GA–(June 2008) Courage, compassion, commitment.  These words define the fight against breast cancer and serve as the pledge for The Vera Bradley Foundation for Breast Cancer. 

The McGee Group President and CEO Wayne McGee believes that Vera Bradley and The McGee Group were brought together to find a cure for breast cancer.  Wayne McGee is an avid supporter of the Foundation from the start, and it became a personal crusade when Wayne’s wife and McGee co-founder, Jenny Lynn McGee, was diagnosed with the disease.  Sadly, Jenny Lynn lost her fight against cancer, but she remains an inspiration for everyone who knew her.

The McGee Group envisions a brighter future free from breast cancer.  We’re proud to contribute a portion of the proceeds from all Vera Bradley Eyewear to the Vera Bradley Foundation for Breast Cancer and breast cancer research.  To find out more about the Foundation or to make a donation, please visit verabradley.org.
