NEW YORK, April 17 /PRNewswire/ -- The 11th annual Entertainment Industry Foundation Revlon Run/Walk For Women -- the largest fundraiser of its kind for women's cancers in the nation -- will be held in New York City on Saturday, May 3, 2008. The Run/Walk starts in Times Square and finishes in the East Meadow of Central Park.

Epatha Merkerson, star of the broadway hit "Come Back Little Sheba" and NBC's "Law & Order," together with featured Revlon celebrity brand ambassador and actress Beau Garrett, will join an expected 40,000 participants for the 2008 New York Run/Walk, an annual Entertainment Industry Foundation (EIF) event (the Los Angeles Run/Walk is the following Saturday, May 10).

The EIF Revlon Run/Walk for Women was launched in 1993 through the combined efforts of Lilly Tartikoff, Ronald O. Perelman and EIF. Since inception, nearly $50 million in grants have been made from the combined events (New York and Los Angeles).

It is their dedication and their commitment to find a cure that has made the run so successful," stated Ronald O.
