Breast Cancer Awareness
October is breast cancer awareness month, and that means it’s time to get out your pink and show your support for breast cancer research and all of those whose lives have been touched by the disease. Your gesture can be as big or as small as you’re able to make it, but make sure that you do your part in spreading breast cancer awareness!
1. Wear or hand out pink ribbons – show your support by breast cancer by wearing a pink ribbon. You’ll find them for sale at establishments around Lafayette IN, available if you make any donation to the cause. Or you can make your own pink ribbons to wear and hand out to friends and family
2. Wear pink – even if you can’t afford to make a big donation to a breast cancer cause, simply wearing pink clothing items, along with a pink ribbon will help you show your support and honor those who have successfully fought the disease or lost their battle
3. Fundraise – holding an event with a pink theme, where the proceeds will go towards breast cancer is a great way to bonds with others over a common cause and give something back to breast cancer research. Hold a bake sale, or get creative and think up another event
4. Try a run/walk for breast cancer – while many took place over the summer, runs and walks for breast cancer are still ongoing in October
5. Shop for breast cancer awareness – breast cancer awareness merchandise is available where a portion or all of the proceeds of a sale go to breast cancer. This way you donate, and show your support with your merchandise
6. Donate – make a donation online, by phone or in person to breast cancer research
