Skinner is the Chairperson of the Val Skinner Foundation, a public charity dedicated to the cause of breast cancer. The foundation is the host of an annual charitable gold tournament, known as the LIFE (LPGA pros In the Fight to Eradicate breast cancer) Event, which has raised significant funds for breast cancer research and education. Because of her continuous efforts, Val has been presented the Award of Hope, the Komen Award and USA Weekend Magazine's "Most Caring Athlete Award."

The Val Skinner Foundation has selected the Susan G. Komen Breast Foundation, the LPGA's official national charity since 1992 and the nation's largest private funder of research dedicated solely to breast cancer, and The Cancer Institute of New Jersey, a National Cancer Institute designated clinical care center as the primary recipients of the funds raised through the LIFE Event. Together these three organizations have created a young women's breast cancer initiative. The Komen Foundation utilizes these contributions to support a national breast cancer outreach initiative which focuses on women in their 20s and 30s. The Cancer Institute uses this support for a breast cancer clinical research initiative also focusing on young women and the prevention and treatment of this disease.

The LPGA family, unfortunately like many of you, has discovered firsthand the devastating effects of breast cancer on the victims of their families and friends. Your support of the Val Skinner Foundation by the purchase of this product will honor the memory of those who have lost their lives to this disease and give reason to celebrate LIFE.
