August 18, 2008 – Teleflora, the world’s leading floral service offering only hand-arranged, hand-delivered floral arrangements by local Teleflora florists, announced today the launch of a partnership with Stand Up To Cancer (SU2C) a new initiative to raise philanthropic dollars for accelerating ground-breaking cancer research.

As part of this partnership, Teleflora will feature two bouquets tied to SU2C on teleflora.com through July 31, 2009.

Every time a consumer purchases either arrangement, Teleflora will donate 20% of the purchase price to the organization.

On September 5, 2008 (8 p.m. EDT and PDT) ABC, CBS and NBC will donate one hour of simultaneous commercial-free primetime for a nationally televised fundraising event aimed at rallying the public around the goal of ending cancer’s reign as a leading cause of death.

By bringing together industry professionals, as well as mediums such as television and the web, SU2C will fund cutting-edge research and push cancer from a disease that takes lives to one people can survive.

“Charitable giving is an important part of Teleflora’s philosophy and we are proud to align ourselves with an organization that is working with the top experts in cancer research and forging a new way to develop breakthroughs that will put an end to all kinds of cancer,” said Shawn Weidmann, president, Teleflora. “By bringing together the best and brightest scientific minds in cancer research and investing in their projects, SU2C is taking the bureaucratic obstacles out of the way.

Through the gift of flowers, we can be part of the movement to help push cancer innovation forward.”

Teleflora will offer customers a standard and deluxe Stand Up To Cancer Bouquet available at two different price points ($49.95 and $69.95 including delivery charges, excluding taxes) on teleflora.com and Teleflora will donate 20% to SU2C.

Once purchased, these dazzling floral bouquets of orange roses and alstroemeria, yellow Asiatic lilies, pink Matsumoto asters, hot pink miniature gerberas and green button spray chrysanthemums are hand-arranged in a modern glass cube vase and delivered by a local Teleflora florist.

“Cancer claims one person every minute of every day in the United States.

Every year in this country, it takes the lives of more than half a million people…worldwide, cancer kills more than six million people annually,” said Laura Ziskin, producer of the September 5th broadcast and a cancer survivor.

“We want everyone to know that they can make a difference in this fight and I want to thank Teleflora for providing another avenue for people to do so.”
