Geri Halliwell Supports Breast Cancer Care

Stepping out for a good cause, Geri Halliwell made her way to the Breast Cancer Care 2009 Fashion Show at Grosvenor House Hotel in London on Wednesday evening (October 7).

The former Spice Girl looked sexy in a multi-colored gown as she strutted through the arrivals area to join fellow attendees including Lisa Snowdon, Kara Tointon and Gail porter, among others.

Aside from helping out with breast cancer research, Miss Halliwell recently launched a campaign to help women suffering from gender based violence in Nepal.

Of the effort, Geri told press: “Violence against women and girls is not acceptable in any country; it’s not acceptable in the United Kingdom and it’s not acceptable in Nepal. Though it’s the 21st century, mothers are still dying in childbirth and subjected to violence within the home.”

The 37-year-old adds, “Women deserve to be empowered in all areas, in health, education, and to feel safe. It’s a proven fact; a strong healthy educated mother is the key to a healthy, prosperous country. We all benefit: we take care of them, they take care of us.”
