Fight Cancer with Belkin 'Hope' pink iPod Cases

September 10, 2007 | by Geoff Duncan


Belkin's new "Hope" pink iPod cases direct donations to Susan G. Komen for the Cure non-profit network of breast cancer survivors and activists.


Some folks get a case for their iPod just to protect their fancy new digital media player—now, peripheral and accessory maker Belkin is offering more ways for iPod nano owners to directly support the Susan G. Komen for the Cure non-profit dedicated to curing breast cancer. Five pink-and-chocolate Belkin iPod cases sport the Susan G. Komen for the Cure logo, and dedicate $2.50 directly to the foundation. Belkin has promised a minimum of $225,000 will be donated.

"The cases not only celebrate the active lifestyles of women, but their empowerment and their strength," said Mark Reynoso, Belkin's senior VP of sales and marketing. "Studies have shown that exercise is a key component to fighting breast cancer. Our new cases for iPod help financially support the cause while promoting this healthy lifestyle."

Belkin first launched "Hope" iPod cases back in May with two models: the Remix Metal and the Sport Armband. Now, Belkin is offering five cases in total, including the Statements folio case for iPod nano, Pocket Blues denim case for iPod nano, and the Slim Fit for iPod nano. All are priced at $24.99.

The cases are designed for Apple's previous generations of iPod nanos (the tall, thin ones), rather than the just-announced video-capable iPod nanos.

The Susan G. Komen for the Cure foundation was founded 25 years ago, and is perhaps best-known for its Race for the Cure events, a long-running series o 5K runs/walks held around the world.

The Special Edition Pink iPod Bundle with a $15 iTunes Gift Card

If you've always wanted an iPod but have never found a reason to splurge, a recent release from Apple may give you a good excuse. Apple has recently released a pink iPod Shuffle bundle that, when purchased, sends a portion of the proceeds to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Up until now, the iPod Shuffle was available in shades of silver, teal, blue, green, and red. The pink shuffle is being sold only in the special edition breast cancer research bundle, and it is a great Christmas present for the women in your life.

The Special Edition pink iPod Shuffle bundle comes with a 1GB, pink iPod shuffle as well as a $15 gift card to iTunes. In general, one song download on iTunes is 99¢, so the gift card basically equals 15 free song downloads to put on your new iPod Shuffle. The whole package is being sold for $79, which is equivalent to the regular cost of an iPod shuffle. So, you're basically getting 15 free song downloads and supporting an important cause for the same price you would normally pay for the iPod Shuffle alone.

The special edition pink iPod Shuffle is available for purchase exclusively at Target. It must be purchased at the store - it is not available online. If you know a woman who's suffered from breast cancer or if you're just looking for a great present for a woman in your life, the pink iPod Shuffle is a great option. It's inexpensive, you know it'll be used because it comes with free downloads, and it supports a great cause.

Sadly, the days of showing your love for someone with a mixtape are all but gone. However, device manufacturers look to be gearing up for similar Valentine's day gifting by offering appropriately-colored portable media players.

Apple announced today a new pink iPod Nano, available with 8 GB of storage for $199. If sales of this particular iPod are not phenomenal, expect to see them repurposed as breast cancer awareness iPods.


Microsoft has taken the theme even further, with its pink and red Zunes complete with Valentine's Day-themed wallpaper, and "romantic playlists." The Zune 4 is available for $149, the Zune 8 for $199, and the Zune 80 for $249.99.
