Have A Heart !

I was shocked to learn that women between the ages of 16-24 experience the highest rates of partner violence!

Aside from talking to our loved ones we can do more to stop the violence thanks to the m.powerment by mark campaign for young women. MTV star Lauren Conrad and Mark by Avon have teamed up to co-chair a philanthropic initiative to develop three products that will send 100% of the net proceeds of their entire sales to this cause.

Support the cause and raise awareness by wearing the Have A Heart Necklace. ($22; meetmark.com)

Lauren Conrad and her makeup artist Amy Nadine helped create two Glow Baby Glow Hook Up lip glosses in m.powerment peach and m.powerment gold that will be available this Fall for purchase. (each $5; meetmark.com)

The Photo above shows Lauren wearing her Have a Heart necklace.

"Abuse is a devastating cycle. By purchasing this necklace for yourself and your friends, you'll support the cause and raise awareness," Lauren adds about the project.

If you think you know someone that is in an abusive relationship, guide them to the national Teen Dating Abuse Helpline at 1-866-331-9474.
