Find Your This month you might notice things turning a little more pink than usual. That’s because October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Wearing and sharing the color pink is a way to raise awareness and express moral support to women with breast cancer.
Promote Awareness
1 in 8 women will develop breast cancer in their lifetime. But the good news is that breast cancer has a hugely successful remission rate! This is possible only with early detection. This is how you can help.
Make a statement with pink ribbons, clothing – anything you can think of! When someone asks you “What’s with all the pink?’ you can explain that you’re choosing to bring about awareness. Because early detection saves lives!
THINK PINK this October as a way to remind all women to stay informed.

- Schedule regular exams
- Learn about family history
- Know what is typical for you

Celebrate Survivors
According to cancer.org, there are an estimated 2.8 million breast cancer survivors in the United States alone. Chances are you know someone who fought this disease and won! Show your support to a real life hero with Think Pink flowers this month.
