October is Month, and we all have a part to play in supporting this important cause. Whether you’ve been personally affected or simply want to make a difference, there are many ways you can help. Here are a few ways to get involved:
1. Donate to Research & Support Organizations – Every dollar counts! There are many impactful, reputable organizations out there. We recommend The Pink Fund. They are known for providing direct financial assistance to breast cancer patients in need. They have an impeccable reputation for using funds effectively and transparently & a Platinum Seal of Transparency on GuideStar. http://thepinkfund.org
2. Wear Pink – Show your support by wearing pink throughout the month. It’s a simple but powerful way to raise awareness.
3. Join a Walk or Run – Sign up for a local breast cancer walk/run. It’s a fun way to get active while supporting survivors and honoring those we’ve lost.
4. Spread Awareness – Share facts, stories, and resources on your social media. Education is key in early detection, which can save lives.
5. Support a Friend or Family Member – Offer a listening ear or help with meals, chores, or transportation to appointments. Small gestures mean so much.
6. Shop for a Cause – Many brands offer products that donate a portion of proceeds to breast cancer charities. You can shop and support the cause at the same time.
7. Promote Regular Screenings – Early detection saves lives. Be sure to schedule mammograms as recommended by your doctor and stay on top of self-exams.
Together, we can make a difference.
The Pink Fund provides 90-day non-medical cost-of-living expenses on behalf of breast cancer patients in active treatment, so they can focus on healing, raising their families, and returning to the workplace.
