Necklace sold
on bellegray.com in June 2008
with proceeds benefiting the
Turtle Ridge Foundation and GridIron Heroes
Los Angeles, CA (March 19, 2008) - Rachel Leigh has created
a necklace to benefit double Olympic medalist and current World
Cup record holder Bode Miller's charity - the Turtle Ridge Foundation
(TRF) and GridIron Heroes - a charity supported by Jessica Biel
through Make the Difference Network (MTDN). MTDN is an online
network designed to connect nonprofit organizations with potential
donors. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of each necklace
will go directly to these nonprofit organizations.

"I created the
Turtle Ridge Foundation as a way to help people in need and
give back to the community" said Miller. "I am very
excited about this endeavor as a way to raise additional funds
for charity."
"I
am thrilled to support an initiative that directly benefits
these two amazing organizations," said Ms. Biel.
The
necklace has a gold turtle charm and features a colored ribbon
with a 'wish' embroidered on it attached to the clasp. When
the consumer receives the necklace they will find out what wish
they have received. "We are very excited to design this
Lucky Turtle necklace in support of Jessica and Bode's two great
causes" said Leigh.
The
necklace will be sold on bellegray.com beginning on June 1,
2008. The necklace will retail for $60.00.
