Breast Cancer Awareness Goes One Step Further

An estimated 3 million women are living with breast cancer in the United States, and 2 million have been diagnosed. That means at least 1 million breast cancers have not yet been discovered - one of the reasons this remains the number one cause of death in woman around the world. Breast cancer awareness goes one-step further in an attempt to educate and save more women from this dreadful disease.

It seems the Pink Campaign for Breast Cancer Awareness is going to a new level ...

Garth Brooks has just joined forces on the pink campaign. Garth Brooks new 3 disc set up is dedicating $10 from each new album sale. This is a special edition release specifically to help improve breast cancer awareness in the public eye.

Avon has also responded to the cause with their own pink breast cancer awareness campaign. They've put together several walks for breast cancer including the walk around the world campaign.

Having a pink party seems to be the latest craze. In the UK last year, more than $200,000 was raised thanks to pink parties. You can have a fancy dress party, a karaoke party, or even a pajama party. You decide. There are no rules. It's all about fundraising.

Pink ribbons, pink jewelry, pink clothing - you name it, it seems to be on the market. Many retailers are joining the cause and are donating a percentage of their profits on these items. It's all for the cause and in hopes of a cure.

As more and more people jump on the bandwagon to support the "pink," not only are the amount of funds raised being taken to a new level, awareness continues to grow. And with knowledge comes power to reduce and someday eliminate breast cancer.
