FOOTHILL RANCH, Calif.—Oakley, Inc. has announced that contributions made through the sale of the company's special-edition LIVESTRONG eyewear have now exceeded $1 million. Donating $20 from the sale of each LIVESTRONG sunglass to the Lance Armstrong Foundation, it took Oakley just eight months for the program to reach the $1 million mark, according to a statement from the company.

“This is a huge milestone, and I could not be more grateful to Oakley for its ongoing support of the foundation," said Lance Armstrong. "They've always been there for me, on and off the bike, and with the help of the company and those who appreciate its unbeatable eyewear technologies, we are making a difference for those whose lives are affected by cancer.”

"Lance has been part of the Oakley family for decades, and we are honored to assist his efforts in bringing hope to those whose lives are challenged by cancer," said Colin Baden, president of Oakley. "Hitting the $1 million mark in just eight months is a testament to the inspiration of Lance's biking career and foundation work, and we are proud to be part of such a noble endeavor.”
