I have a pink ribbon on my bag along with a dangly for my mobile like these http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/13602.htm Only it's the breast cancer ribbon

My work has a whole line of clothes, accesorries, stationary etc for breast cancer. 15% of proceeds go towards it. They are also asking customers to donate their points (from a card we swipe to give points with purchases) to breast cancer.

I have two pins that I wear on my lab coat at work. The first one is a heart shaped flag pin that I've worn since 9/11/01. The other pin is a pink breast cancer awareness ribbon pin. I doubt that I will ever want to remove either one.

I've done my click, I have a ribbon pin, and am about to go to the vbPlaza for a ribbon ......

for those suffering

It still says I don't have enough points to get a ribbon.

Edit: Oh never mind, I figured it out.

My mother passed away from breast cancer on January 24, 2000. Honestly, I've just this year come to terms with it enough to really start wanting to show my support. I have a breast cancer awareness rubber duckie that lights up, and a rhinestone pink ribbon pin. My only problem is that I just plain don't like pink. Never have.

I click at the BreastCancerSite every day (it's just another tab for TheAnimalRescueSite so it's a daily habit).

Done!

I clicked today!

While we're on the topic of breast cancer and organizations that help support research for a cure....www.savethetatas.com is a WONDERFUL website that helps too! I have a "save the tata's" bumber magnet from there and i also order gifts from their site for friends/family to help spread the word and raise awareness! They have some really creative/fun stuff that helps to spread the word and raise support!

Did my click, again!
