According to Pathologist Dr. Anirban Maitra, "While all of the efforts at Johns Hopkins to advance our understanding of pancreas cancer and to develop new techniques to diagnose and treat this dreaded disease are proceeding at a record pace, we have more leads than we have resources to pursue them. Private giving speeds our research and allows us to pursue novel ideas."
The Story of LOVE(TM):
In the spring of 2003, Crawford Shaw, the President of Tea Body's, Inc., was informed that his cousin, Elizabeth was diagnosed with Islet Cell Insulinoma, a rare pancreatic cancer. Elizabeth was eighteen years of age at the time and preparing for her freshman year at college. After learning of Elizabeth's diagnosis, she was invited to develop and design her own signature lip balm, with her initials imprinted on the product. Elizabeth decided ylang ylang and grapefruit was her favorite combination and requested that Tea Body's name the product "LOVE(TM)."
In the spirit of Elizabeth's message of LOVE, Tea Body's, Inc. will donate a portion of the proceeds from the sale of any LOVE(TM) product to the pancreatic cancer research program at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine in Baltimore, Maryland.
According to Tea Body's President, Crawford Shaw, "We are proud to announce as a part of the launch of the LOVE(TM) lip Balm the support of Smoothie King."
