Stylish pillows promote mental health awareness
May 12, 2012 (PRLEAP.COM) Lifestyle News
pillowsforhope.com announces its grand opening with a selection of decorative pillows that reflect the best of today's styles and trends in home décor. Part of the selling price from each pillow is donated to mental health research. The World Health Organization estimates that approximately half of serious mental disorders develop by age 14. One in 5 people in North America will experience a mental illness at some point in their lives. With those odds, it's important to know the warning signs of mental illness and where to turn for help.
"I'm hoping we can inspire people to learn more about mental health and make it a priority in our everyday lives." says owner, Pamela Buffone. "Life can be busy and stressful. We could all use more reminders to take care of ourselves and stay healthy. I thought pillows would be a great way to do that and raise awareness and money for an important cause."
The pillows are made from designer fabrics and are organized by style and color so that shoppers can easily find what they are looking for. Hot trending styles such as Ikat and southwest are offered as well as classic and elegant looks in linen and cotton blends.
Pillows are a fun, trendy way to update the look of a home without spending a fortune. The eye-catching pillows are great conversation starters or reminders to sit back and relax.
The mission of pillowsforhope.com is to raise awareness for mental health in a positive way. The site contains resources that will help people understand more about mental health and uses social media to create communities and conversations around interesting topics related to mental health.
