Nève Designs Weaves Itself Into The Community

Nève Designs, creators of women’s and men’s fashion sweaters and accessories today announced it has partnered with several organizations and events to illustrate its commitment to the community, health and wellness as well as the outdoor industry.

HealthLinks Clinic
The Nève Designs Trudy sweater is named after a wonderful friend and humanitarian, Trudy Turvey. As founder and director of HealthLinks Clinic in Boulder, Colo., Trudy provides therapeutic exercise, rehabilitation and support services for cancer survivors and their families. To support Trudy and her noble endeavor proceeds from the sales of Trudy sweaters will be donated to the HealthLinks Foundation to help provide care for patients otherwise unable to afford clinic services.

“I am truly honored that Nève Designs has become such a huge supporter of the HealthLinks Clinic and its Foundation whose mission is to provide financial support, education and community outreach for cancer survivors and their families,” said Trudy Turvey. “Through our partnerships with company’s like Nève, we can help provide services to promote healthy, active survivorship.”

“I was so impressed with the passion Trudy and her staff exhibit when talking about the HealthLinks Clinic programs, and on listening to her patients speak about their experiences at the clinic,” said Tom Irvine, CEO of Nève Designs. “I knew that this program was an important asset for our community, so when Trudy asked me to join the Foundation board, I had no hesitation in accepting. I immediately knew this was something I could be committed to intensely and make Nève Designs part of the crusade.”

Women’s LUNA Mountain Bike Team
Nève Designs is a sponsor of The Luna Women’s Mountain Bike Team providing them with sweaters and accessories. The Luna Women’s Mountain Bike Team includes Racing and Ambassador divisions. Both are integral components of the program, dedicated to bringing the community of women together through the sport of mountain biking. More importantly, both groups hope to raise public awareness of breast cancer and The Breast Cancer Fund.

“I have a huge passion for mountain biking and helping women in our community and throughout the world,” said Rhonda Swenson, founder and creative director of Nève Designs. “Through our sponsorship with Team Luna, we hope to support women mountain bikers as well and help continue to raise awareness for The Breast Cancer Fund.”

U.S. Ski Team
Nève Designs was selected by The U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association (USSA) to be a licensed sweater and accessories company for the organization until April, 2011. The U.S. Ski Team Logo will be seen on Nève’s mock sweaters, vests and accessories. The terms of the agreement will run from May 1, 2007 until April 30, 2011 and will provide Nève the use of U.S. Ski Team marks and athletes for advertising and promotional purposes.

About Nève Designs
Established in 2002 by Rhonda Swenson, Nève Designs was inspired by Rhonda’s lifelong passion for snow sports and fashion. The focus has always been quality function and style, which is why 100 percent of the sweater and accessories collection is made with ultra fine Merino wool. The philosophy of Nève is strongly rooted in fit, style, function and fun. The products are warm and comfortable enough for a day on the slopes, yet soft and stylish for a night on the town. The 2007-08 collection offers lightweight, fine-gauge art knit sweaters and accessories for men and women, available exclusively through specialty retailers and finer catalogs throughout North America.
