Design Her Gals: Create Your Own Onlkine Mini Me

It was love at first click when I found the "Design Her Gals" website. Three of my great passions combined in one spot - cool computer graphics, shopping for stylish clothes for my online self, and raising funds for breast cancer treatment.

Design Her Gals is an innovative site that lets you customize a gal in your likeness (or your mom, sister, best friend's likeness) and print your "gal" out on your own customized stationery, t-shirt, business card, or more. You select the body type, hair color, eye color, and outfit and just watch as the site created your very own mini-me.

As much fun as it is to create your gal, the purpose of the site is much bigger. Design Her Gals was created as a fun way to raise funds and awareness for Stage 4 breast cancer patients. The founders are attempting to raise $1 million dollars over the next 3 years to raise the funds which will go toward fulfilling wishes for Stage 4 breast cancer patients and their families. In addition, funds are being used to sponsor and support a nationwide website dedicated to this important segment of the breast cancer community. Five percent of every sale goes directly to the Gal to Gal Foundation to raise funds for this great cause.

One of the founders of Design Her Gals, Jean Fitzmaurice, was recently selected as one of the 2007 Yoplait Champions. She was selected by Yoplait, Susan G. Komen and Self Magazine as one of 25 ordinary women and men doing extraordinary things in their communities to help in the fight against breast cancer.

You can even get your own free gal to use on your website -- all you need to do is sign up as an affiliate and link back to designhergals.com to bring them more traffic towards their $1million goal!!

Also for those of you who want to know what I look like, it's pretty close to my personal "gal"!
