Are You Thinking Pink?

[HistoryMamaX3]

October is here... and while we are out and about thinking of Halloween and fall leaves, it is also time to be thinking PINK!

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month- look around, you'll find pink everywhere! At this time, grocery stores are filling their shelves with "PINK" products. You'll see the Breast Cancer Pink Ribbon on the packaging- meaning that a percentage of the purchase will be donated to the Susan G. Koman Breast Cancer Foundation.

I noticed that Yahoo has a ribbon, hmm- and now I notice that CafeMom doesn't! That is alright, for I know that the CafeMom team is working hard to think PINK during the month of October as well.

Any member can join the CafeMom Team for the Cure group  this month! CafeMom has pledged to donate up to $2000.00 to the cause if we can get up to 2000 members to join by 10/31! A simple step that you can take in the fight to help save lives!

Yoplait Yogurt also teams up to help fight Breast Cancer with their Save Lids to Save Lives program. During the month of October you'll notice pretty PINK lids atop their products- each of these lids (when mailed in) equates to $0.10 to Breast Cancer Research. This seems like a small amount, but it adds up quickly. Last year alone my group PINK NINJAS raised nearly $100 just in pink lids! This year we hope to beat that number. Ask me how you can join our team and think PINK this October!
