(http://www.cuttersgloves.com), the market leader in high-performance athletic
gloves and accessories, announced Friday the donation of over 1,000 pairs of
pink football gloves to individual football players and high school teams
across the country. As soon as the announcement hit the Cutters' website, the
orders flowed in and the 1,000 pairs of Cutters Pink were completely sold out

"The response was overwhelming," said Laura Beraznik, Cutters' co-founder
and brand manager. "Our goal is to create thousands of pink glove impressions
on youth and high school football fields across the country in October. We
believe the unusual sight of pink gloves on the football field will generate
additional interest in National Breast Cancer Awareness and hopefully motivate
others to get involved. This is a very personal mission for us and for our
customers," said Beraznik.
The Cutters Pink football gloves will go out this month to individuals and
teams who will sport them in their October games. Here is a list of some of
the schools wearing Cutters pink football gloves for at least one game in
