support the cause in style

You’d have to be seriously out of the loop to not know October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Besides buying pink M&M’s, pink cans of Campbell’s soup, or even special packages of Brawny paper towels, we’ve found some truly stylish ways you can show your support. So get ready to do some serious shopping because when it comes to supporting a worthy cause there’s no such thing as a budget (at least that’s what we tell ourselves).

• Purchase five Echo scarves designed by Fred Flare and 10% off all proceeds will go to breastcancer.org
• Honor a survivor or remember a lost loved one with a special keepsake key tag from tj&co and 25% of your purchase will be donated to Susan G. Komen for the Cure
• Pamper yourself or someone you love with the We [heart] Moms Breast Cancer Awareness Set from MDMoms and 15% of the price will be donated to Susan G. Komen for the Cure
• Let your little one help support the cause in a limited edition pink ribbon shirt from ResaDesign; 40% of the proceeds go to Chicago-based Bright Pink
• Nurse in style with a beautiful bra from Nummies and $5 from that sale will go to The Credit Valley Hospital Foundation for Cancer Research
• Shop for a variety of great gifts from The Breast Cancer Site’s Pink Ribbon Store; each item purchased generates funds that provide free mammograms for women in need
• Satisfy a sweet tooth with a gift box from Eleni’s NYC “b cancer aware” collection of tempting cookies and 50% of the sale from every gift box will be donated to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation
• Craving chocolate? Try the Chocolate Rx Assortment (12 oz.) from b.sweets and 20% of your online sale will also go to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation
• Purchase a bottle of Clinique’s limited-edition Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion and you’ll not only have super soft skin but $10 of your purchase will support The Breast Cancer Research Fund
• “Save the boobs” and shop The Silly Wagon boutique; 10% of its sales will be donated to the Susan G. Komen Foundation
  

And this is just the tip of a very pink iceberg. The Breast Cancer Research Foundation has a detailed list of Pink Products & Programs. And if you know of any fabulous designers or companies offering special products this month please post a comment with the info (including a link if possible). We all love to shop and supporting a wonderful and worthy cause is a great excuse to do so! –Emily
