Since October is Breast Cancer Awareness month, we’ve decided to list 10 products that benefit charities that support breast cancer research. Breast cancer is so important because it affects some of the most important people in our lives — mothers, sisters, daughters, grandmothers, etc.
About 1 in 8 women in the United States (between 12 and 13%) will develop invasive breast cancer over the course of her lifetime.
We can all easily do our part to help cure breast cancer by shopping for Pink products.
In 2010, there are more than 2.5 million breast cancer survivors in the U.S. and we hope that number continues to grow! So how can you help?
