Save a Life! - October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Posted by Blaine on October 7, 2008 under General News, MyFreeCause |

In celebration of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we’ve teamed up with Susan G. Komen for the Cure and Citi to raise awareness for a cause that affects countless Americans every year.  We’ve re-launched a new and improved Pink Ribbon on MySpace and Facebook that gives users tons of easy ways to show their support and help out in the fight against breast cancer.  We’ll even give you Pink Points for participating and at the end of the month, we’ll be raffling off cool prizes like iPods and iPhones.  So join Pink Ribbon and inspire others by sharing your story, read others’ stories about how breast cancer has touched their lives, donate year round without spending a dime by downloading the Pink Ribbon Toolbar, sign-up for a credit card and Citi will donate $50 to Komen if your application is approved, and much more!

We’re really excited for everyone to get involved and we’re confident that with your help, we can reach our goal of raising $250,000 this month for Susan G. Komen for the Cure, which will go directly to funding breast cancer research and programs.  So go ahead, make a difference, and join our Pink Ribbon Facebook and MySpace applications.

    I entertained friends on Monday evening and did a cooking demo for them, did a raffle and sold ribbon pins. I will be donating my commission from the show and so far have raised £115 for breast cancer research. I know 6 friends who have had breast cancer 4 of which has had to have mastectomys, all are survivors of this disease. Everybody, keep up the good work.

    I have a friend whose mother died of breast cancer. It was a horrible road after her death. It is hard to deal with the loss of a mother and I dont think he will ever fully recover…We need to find a cure for breast cancer.

    My aunt passed away from breast cancer back in ‘91. I miss her dearly, she was one of my favorite aunts. Fortunately she was not blood to me and as far as I know we have no breast cancer in my family but we have lots of other cancers. My aunt was only in her 40’s when she passed. She never got to see either of her boys get married or have children. I sure hope that a cure is found soon so no more children have to grow up without their mothers.
