Land of Paws
http://www.landofpaws.com
Land of Paws was founded in 1993 by veterinarians Dr. Mark Daly and Dr. George Gates and their wives, Patty Daly and Pam Gates. Their mission was to provide the Kansas City community with something that was missing: An upscale dog and cat store offering the most exclusive pet supplies, toys, treats, pet apparel and boutique items for a pet owner and their pets delivered with extraordinary customer service. Land of Paws is developing their first proprietary line of products to build awareness for breast cancer survivorship and support Back in the Swing, under the new brand "Molly's Paws". The line incorporates a unique pink ribbon design to honor the memory of Molly, the Westie who belonged to Back in the Swing founder Barbara Unell and her family. Molly is the "faithful companion" on Back in the Swing's communications, just as she was the faithful friend to her family for over 15 years, with her eager smile and happy zest for life that helped Barbara get "back in the swing" after breast cancer. The line will be sold online at LandofPaws.com and at pet retailers around the country, and will encourage playing and caring for pets as a proven way to get back in the swing after breast cancer! Proceeds of sales will benefit Back in the Swing.

The Roasterie
http://www.theroasterie.com
The Roasterie has become one of the most renowned specialty coffee roasters in the nation. Committed to finding the best coffees from around the world, The Roasterie buys its beans from small, specialty farmers. The beans are roasted using a convection air-roasting method, instead of the more traditional drum-roasting method, to ensure superior consistency and a tastier, smoother cup of coffee. An organic coffee blend has been specially made for Back in the Swing, with a beautifully bright acidity complemented by slight hints of sweet lemons and orange zest. This blend is balanced by a syrup-like body, which transforms into a long lasting nutty and spicy finish with hints of clove and nutmeg. The Roasterie will donate 10% of the proceeds from sales of the Back in the Swing blend to Back in the Swing USA.
