HourPower Watches Partners with March of Dimes in Time for Father's Day

HourPower Watches teams with the March of Dimes to provide watches that open to a secret chamber that reveals a cherished photo and special words to celebrate, to inspire, to remember babies and parents. Twenty percent of watch sales will be donated to the March of Dimes.

Cleveland, OH (PRWEB) May 30, 2008

HourPower Watches® LLC (http://www. hourpowerwatches. com/marchofdimes/) is pleased to announce a corporate partnership with The March of Dimes.

HourPower manufactures patented timepieces that open to reveal a secret chamber for special words and a treasured picture. These high quality, solid stainless steel timepieces for men and women provide a unique way for parents to celebrate their babies and contribute to a very worthy cause.

Twenty percent of the price of each watch sold will be donated to the March of Dimes to champion the health of America's greatest asset-our children. The collaborative effort between the two organizations can be viewed online at www. hourpowerwatches. com/marchofdimes/ (http://www. hourpowerwatches. com/marchofdimes/).

The March of Dimes fostered this partnership because numerous parents had reported that these watches gave them a meaningful and personal way to tell time. Michelle M. says, "Every time I look at my watch, I am reminded that I am watching my miracle grow up". They can also be a lot of fun -- the hidden picture frame allows interchangeable photos to be placed in seconds. The company offers choices for permanent photo discs and engraving on the lift tab as part of the ordering package.

Psychological studies support that people who view positive pictures and words throughout the day, experience newfound energy for what is important to them. "I don't know why it is, but having my daughter's photo right with me gives me a certain strength. I can flip the watch up and see her smiling face. I kind of feel like a superhero with my secret power," says Todd from Atlanta

Men report that the HourPower Watch appeals to them because of the unique construction of the mechanism and the element of surprise on their wrist. They enjoy showing off their families with this novel timepiece; making them a special choice for Father's Day -- worn, enjoyed, and treasured for a long time, in addition to providing a 20% donation to the March of Dimes. The collection has more than 25 styles to choose from ranging in price from $80-$260.

"We are very honored to partner with the March of Dimes--we share the same goals," says Brenda Ellner, PH. D, president. Their mission is our passion. We both want to empower parents with the inspiration of their children, to offer hope and healing, and to motivate each of us to use 'our power' in service of our children and families and the greater good.
