“我们很荣幸获此殊荣。HERA基金会真是令人难以置信。 我们非常高兴成为他们的一部分。”John Evans说道:“HERAbiner只是筹集资金和提高人气的一种方式,但这也同样为社会建设出了一份力。”

Petzl USA received the 2007 HERA Power of One Award during the recent HERA Climb4Life in Salt Lake City. The award is given annually to an organization in recognition of its support of the nonprofit. The HERA Foundation‘s founder, Sean Patrick, presented the award, which was accepted by Petzl’s director of marketing, John Evans. Earlier this year Evans launched the Petzl HERAbiner program to increase awareness of the Climb4Life rock-climbing event series that raises money for ovarian cancer research.
Each manual, screw-lock, lightweight carabiner is etched in white with “HERA Climb4Life.” PETZL donates $1.00 from the sale of each carabiner to the HERA Foundation.
“We‘re so proud to have been given this tremendous honor. The work that The HERA Foundation does is truly incredible. It is great to be part of it,” says John Evans. “The HERAbiner is a vehicle to raise funds and awareness, but it also builds community; think of it like a Lance Armstrong Live Strong bracelet that is rated to 5000 pounds.”
Past winners of the Power of One Award include:
2006 Climbing Magazine, Carbondale, Colo.
2005 Forte Creative Media, Las Vegas, Nev.
2004 Black Diamond Climbing Equipment, Salt Lake City, Utah
The sixth annual HERA Ovarian Cancer Climb4Life, Salt Lake City, raised over $100,000 for ovarian cancer research and education programs.
