NavPress is pleased to announce that it has achieved the Bronze Donor Level with the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF), an organization dedicated to breast cancer prevention. NavPress has given the NBCF a portion of the proceeds from every Message//REMIX: Solo [Pink Edition] sold; to date, donations total more than $25,000.

"We are thrilled to be a part of what the National Breast Cancer Foundation is doing to change the lives of women and families," says Jill Johnson, NavPress Bible Publisher. "The Message//REMIX: Solo [Pink Edition] is changing lives both spiritually and physically, and we are thankful for that."

The pink-and-white devotional Bible was developed to encourage and support cancer patients and their families.

As a CBA exclusive, NavPress also created the "Message of Hope" program through which Christian retail customers could write a note of support to a cancer patient on a blank bookplate. Retailers sent the bookplates to NavPress, which placed them in copies of The Message of Hope, a booklet that features portions of The Message. The booklets were distributed to patients currently fighting cancer.

According to Johnson, NavPress will continue donating to the NBCF.

Named by Time magazine as one of the 25 most influential evangelicals in America, Oxford-trained theologian and author J. I. Packer has helped Christians around the world discover the wonder, glory, and joy of knowing God personally. NavPress is pleased to announce that The J. I. Packer Classic Collection: Daily Readings for Your Spiritual Journey has received a Christian Retailers Choice Award nomination. This devotional offers daily readings with excerpts from books by Packer, including Praying the Lord's Prayer, Evangelism and the Sovereignty of God, and Keep in Step with the Spirit.

The J. I. Packer Classic Collection is the second release in the NavPress Devotional Reader series. The series launched in 2008 with Holiness Day-by-Day by Jerry Bridges, which went on to win an ECPA Book of the Year award. How Great Is Our God, the newest addition to the series, releases this September. It is a collection of devotions and writings by such great Christian thinkers as A. W. Tozer, Charles Colson, and Billy Graham on God.

"NavPress continues its tradition of providing enriching daily devotional readers that challenge serious disciples of Christ to know and experience God on a deeper level," says NavPress President Mike Miller.

The Christian Retailers Choice Awards will be presented at Retailing ReBoot 2011 Christian Retail Show, April 26-28, 2011, in Orlando, Florida.
