Click the Pink Ribbon On The Cigna Website and Money Will Be Donated for The Fight Against Breast Cancer–Truth! But Now Ended!
Summary of eRumor:
A short email says to go to the website of the Cigna Foundation and click the pink ribbon and Cigna will donate $1 to battle breast cancer. The message says it’s during the month of October only.
The Truth:
This was true, but the campaign was in 2001.
Cigna consists of several companies that offer group insurance and financial services. Their Cigna Foundation donated $1 per click during October of 2001 to support the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.
Many companies donate to charity in response to visits to web sites. It’s partly a way for them to participate in worthy causes and partly a way for them to attract fresh visitors to their sites.
