Shop For A Cause: Breast Cancer Month
Did you know that roughly 1 in 8 women will be affected by and develop breast cancer at some point in their life? We do not mean to alarm you, that statistic is terrifying, but there are things that women can do monthly and annually to be proactive about early detection which can be lifesaving. Fortunately, we live in 2021, not the 1800’s, where breast cancer treatments are well developed and can be incredibly effective but the path to finding a cure remains on-going. If you are lucky enough for the roll of the dice of life to not deal you breast cancer, you likely know women in your life who are fighting or survivors of this awful disease. Ladies please, make sure to look after your girls and check for lumps or abnormalities.
Beginning in 1985, October has been Breast Cancer Awareness month and companies have donated millions of dollars towards breast cancer research, therapies, treatments, rehabilitation centers, and more, in the fight against breast cancer. This month we urge our readers to shop for a cause that will or has affected all of us. A percentage of all the items below will go towards eliminating breast cancer, so why not purchase yourself something pretty in the name of philanthropy.
