Big Things Happening In 2012!
Happy New Year to all the supporters of 65_RedRoses, friends of Eva, and folks everywhere living with CF! 2011 was a wonderful year of sharing Eva’s story and raising awareness about organ donation, but we’re excited that 2012 will be even bigger. We launched our new site design last week, and we hope you like it.
We’re getting closer to announcing the date of the 65_RedRoses premiere on Oprah Winfrey Network, but we can tell you right now that it will be happening in the Spring! On the Hello Cool World store, Canadian supporters can pre-order the new version of the DVD (with an updated ending, French subtitles, and interviews with the directors), which will be released in February. You can also order other 65_RedRoses campaign materials from the store. All proceeds go back into the campaign for the film and Eva’s movement for organ donation.
For American supporters, we know you are eager to see and share Eva’s story. While the DVD is not available for sale in the US yet, you can organize a community screening. Please contact us for details! And be sure to check back here, as well as Facebook and Twitter, because we’ll be sure to let you know as soon as the DVD is available in the US. For the fastest updates, sign up to our mail list! (more…)

The heart motif that has inspired thousands of people around the world is now available on the Hello Cool World store, as a pendant and printed on a t-shirt. All proceeds go to support Eva’s campaign for organ donation and cystic fibrosis awareness, letting you spread her love while wearing it or gifting it to someone in your life. The materials are also produced in North America and sweatshop-free, and can be shipped to anywhere in Canada and the US! (more…)
