Show Your Heartfelt Support

Last night's OWN premiere of 65_RedRoses was a great success with the Twitterverse exploding with conversations remembering Eva.Thanks to all our American friends who tuned into the broadcast, thanks to all our Canadian friends who helped get the word out, and thanks to our Tweet Team for your around-the-clock support! With May being Cystic Fibrosis Awareness Month, we hope that the film inspired thousands with Eva's message of CF awareness and organ donation.
To our Canadian supporters who weren't able to watch the broadcast, you can own a copy of 65_RedRoses by purchasing it through our webstore. The Eco Edition DVD is now available, and the Special Edition DVD is coming soon in limited quantities.
To our American supporters, the DVD is available for pre-sale and will be shipping June 19th.
You can continue showing your heartfelt support for the campaign by purchasing materials from the 65_RedRoses Store. As part of our fairer-trade distribution, all materials were produced ethically - 100% sweatshop free - and all sale proceeds go back in to the #4Eva campaign.
Director, Nimisha Mukerji (left), is showing off the new Eva's Heart t-shirt on black organic cotton, produced by MeToWeStyle: a new social enterprise that is committed to providing ethically manufactured, quality apparel for the socially-conscious consumer. For every shirt sold, MeToWeStyle plants a tree! This t-shirt - designed by Eva - is also available in grey.
You can also wear Eva's Heart around your neck with Eva's heart pendants, all of which are hand-assembled with love by our friends Rebecca & Rex of Buttonmakers.net in Seattle.
Buttonmakers are proud supporters of progressive causes and work closely with community organizations and other rad companies to make their projects a reality. We've been buddies with HelloCoolWorld.com for going on a decade now. So when they asked us to help with the campaign materials for 65_RedRoses, we jumped at the chance. We are so excited to support this important film!
You can also share Eva's story offline with Eva Art Cards, produced on recycled cardstock by long-time supporters Special Screencraft in Vancouver, and Urban Press in Seattle, a super amazing woman owned and operated union print shop -- the only all woman union shop in Seattle.
Whether you can support the #4Eva campaign through a store purchase, a Tweet, a Facebook post, or word-of-mouth mention, all your efforts to grow the campaign are appreciated! Be sure to register your support with the #4Eva App, available on the Apple App Store and Android Play Market. If you're not a smart phone user, you can still register your support here: http://65redroses.com/app
