Breast Cancer Awareness Month is here and this year I'm starting a new challenge. I will try to wear something pink every single day for the entire month. One week in and so far, so good . . . we'll see how I do toward the end of the month. I'm sure some of my shades of pink are questionable, but I'm hopeful that by wearing pink every day, I can make more people aware of this important month. And, hey, if I run out of pink things to wear . . . it's a good excuse to shop for more, right?! ;)
So many companies offer special products during the month of October that donate proceeds to breast cancer research and each year it seems more and more are added to the list. I love it!
Here's a roundup of my favorite ways to shop and support the cause this year. All of the items below donate a portion of the proceeds to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
LOFT - Live in Pink Collection - this year's collection at LOFT includes items by recent breast cancer survivor (and new mom), Giuliana Rancic. You can also buy a LOFT Cares card. For $25, you will receive 20% off every purchase of $100 or more or 25% off every purchase or more when you use your LOVE LOFT or Ann Taylor Card. 90% of the card's purchase price is donated to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation.
Choose from several super cute pink kisses items through Donate with a Kiss at ULTA . I couldn't resist the umbrella, which you receive for a contribution of $10 ($6.50 of which goes to the cause) - I MIGHT even tolerate the rain now.
COACH for a Cause includes selected styles that support breast cancer research, like this adorable Madison chain clutch.
Target offers the Proudly Pink 5-pc Brush Set from breast cancer survivor, Sonia Kashuk.
Clinique's Pink with a Purpose includes a limited edition chubby stick that comes with a carrying case.
There are a ton of other products out there that you can purchase this month to help ensure that a cure WILL be found!
