Nola Cooper started Classic
Creations in 1995, after making invitations for
her 2 year old's birthday party. After receiving
compliments and requests from over half the
invitees, she put her artistic and writing
skills to work, took some courses, and soon word
got around. Nola has done everything from
designing stationery and other personalized
products, to designing
logos and websites for small businesses.
Cancer has touched Nola's life in many
ways-she lost her Grandfather to Lung Cancer
when she was a teen, and lost her dear
Mother-In-Law to Ovarian Cancer when her oldest
son was still a toddler. In late 2002,
after spending a year designing and developing
products that would show her support for people
who are fighting a daily battle with Breast
Cancer, she launched her For A Cure line.
Eventually, Nola added many other ribbon colors
to the note card line, as well as a "puzzle"
design for Autism Awareness.
In 2007, she decided to move her For A Cure
line to it's own domain, so that she can also
work to help provide resources and inspiration
along with her products. During this move,
she added a new service to her offering-Send A
Note. Customers can choose their
ribbon color, personalize their card (or cards),
and then Nola's company will hand write notes
and mail them for the customer. This
service could prove very valuable to someone who
is in treatment, or who has no time to send such
notes. Nola believes that we are on the brink
of discovery when it comes to cancer, and feels
that funding is the largest part of what holds
us back. She intends to do her part by
donating a majority of the proceeds from her For
A Cure Cards to many different research and
education foundations in the United States. |
