Ecko Enterprises and Monster Cable Products, Inc. have introduced "A Case For A Cause," a one-of-a-kind iPod(R) case designed by Marc Ecko to promote awareness and raise funds for the FTBC (Fashion Targets Breast Cancer) initiative.

"Monster is proud to be a part of this worthy project," said Noel Lee, the Head Monster. "We're excited to be joining forces with designer Marc Ecko to do what we can to help. Fashion Targets Breast Cancer unites designers, models, retailers and now Monster in a fight against the disease."

"When I became a member of the CFDA Board of Directors last year," says Marc Ecko, the Board's youngest member, "I wanted to become involved in bringing new energy to the organization using art, music, and youth culture. I also wanted to do something with an impact to make a difference. We are delighted to have the support of Monster in making this initiative a reality and we look forward to its success."

The light-blue leather case comes in three sizes to fit every iPod. The cases feature FTBC's signature bull's-eye logo and are packaged in a box with information about breast cancer awareness. Available at Apple stores, online at www.apple.com/, and through various leading retailers, the case retails for $29.95. Net proceeds benefit FTBC.
