About Frederique Constant
Over the years, Frederique
Constant has earned a reputation as a leading maker of Swiss luxury watches
despite the relative youth of our brand. The quality of our watches and the
detail involved in crafting each watch is only part of our success story; the
rest was driven by watch aficionados and lovers of our brand who saw that we
had something different and unique to offer. It is by appealing to this same
group of people that we hope to make a difference in the lives of many by
soliciting for their support to extend the same affection they have for the
brand, towards charities and causes we are associated with.
Frederique Constant’s
slogan is “Live your passion”, and we do. Passion definitely shows through our
craftsmanship, as well as our charitable donations. We create beautiful watches
with precision design that are assembled by hand, allowing for a high quality
timepiece each and every time. Perceived value is important, so we know that
quality must be consistent in our work and is vital to our success. We are equally
as passionate about charity, with $50 from each watch sold in our Double Heart
Beat Collection donated to various charities.
About The Eva Longoria
Foundation - The foundation was established in 2010 by
actress, activist and philanthropist Eva Longoria. This foundation has been
established primarily for, but not limited to, two charitable causes: women in
the Latino community and children. (http://www.evalongoriafoundation.org/)
Mission:
To help women build better
futures for themselves and their families through education and
entrepreneurship
Our vision is to give
women and girls the tools they need to reach their potential. The Eva
Longoria Foundation supports programs that help girls excel in school
and attend college. Additionally, we work to provide
female entrepreneurs with career training, mentorship, capital and
opportunity. By investing in women and girls, we hope to build a
stronger future for our world.
Furthermore, The Eva Longoria
Foundation will help raise awareness for children of all ethnic and racial
backgrounds suffering from health-related problems. Eva Longoria has been a
spokesperson for Padres Contra El Cancer for the past nine years trying to
improve the quality of life for children with cancer and their
families. Eva Longoria has also founded Eva’s Heroes in San Antonio, TX,
in an effort to enrich the lives of teens and young adults who are
developmentally challenged.
The purpose of Gabrielle’s
Angel Foundation for Cancer Research is to encourage the development of
more effective therapies for patients with leukemia, lymphoma and related
cancers. The Foundation funds innovative clinical or basic science research
that will lead to novel therapeutic approaches that could replace, or be used
in combination with existing effective therapies. Such therapeutic approaches
could include alternative or complementary medicine.
The Foundation funds
research to improve the efficacy of cancer treatments, reduce their toxicity
and improve the quality of life of patients with leukaemia or lymphoma.
The Foundation also
supports limited scientific interchange between select leaders in different
areas of bio and integrative medical research, to develop unique and important
collaborative efforts that will lead to improvements in the treatment and care
of patients with leukaemia and lymphoma.
