October


As you've probably learned by this point October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. Many businesses are running special programs this month where they will donate toward breast cancer research if you purchase certain products. So pay attention when you are at the grocery store or drug store this month! Check for products with the pink ribbon on them!

Yoplait yogurt is once again doing their Save Lids to Save Lives campaign. Mail in the pink tops from their yogurt packaging and they will donate 10 cents per lid to the Komen Foundation.

One of the important goals of having a breast cancer awareness month is of course to get information about detection, care and support out to the public. Most magazines are including articles about breast cancer this month. Many television programs will also have special reports on breast cancer. Take a little time to check some of them out so you are update to date on the info out there!
