MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- This year marks the milestone 10th anniversary of Save Lids to Save Lives(R), Yoplait(R)'s signature pink lid program, which calls for men and women to take action to raise awareness and funds for breast cancer. To date, Yoplait has donated more than $19 million to the breast cancer cause.

"This year's campaign is a celebration of what has been accomplished in the fight against the disease in the past ten years, but also an important reminder of the work that still needs to be done," said Tammy Sadinsky Martin of Yoplait. "Every lid really matters and with the help from people across the country, we can raise up to $1.5 million for the cause this year."
Yoplait's commitment to the fight against breast cancer is really about the power of many -- asking individual people to come together for one important cause and to make a difference. In September and October, special pink lids will top Yoplait yogurt cups, and for every lid saved and mailed in through December 31, 2008, Yoplait will donate 10 cents to Susan G. Komen for the Cure(R), up to $1.5 million with a guaranteed minimum donation of $500,000.
This year, Yoplait is celebrating Save Lids to Save Lives with a 10th
Anniversary Concert featuring Sheryl Crow. The concert will take place on
