PARAMUS, N.J., Oct. 1, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Westfield, which owns and operates 47 shopping centers nationwide, has partnered with television personality Giuliana Rancic and the national non-profit Bright Pink^® to offer shoppers "Fabulous Deals for a Fabulous Cause" at 37 of its centers in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October.

"Bright Pink is thrilled to partner with Westfield for the first time this year. This partnership kicks off at a very important moment, as we move from National Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month into National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Through the sales of the Bright Pink Book and Westfield special events, we are so fortunate to have the opportunity to educate, equip and empower thousands of women to be proactive with their health," says Lindsay Avner, Founder and CEO – Bright Pink.

Additionally, Westfield will spread Bright Pink's lifesaving message by sharing breast health tips with shoppers through integrated social and digital promotions of the Bright Pink Book and special events.
