Breast Cancer Awareness Month

4 Oct

Everyone’s heard/read the slogans such as Go Pink for a Cause in support of Breast Cancer awareness month each October. Most have seen and perhaps purchased some of the merchandise – pink ribbons, wristbands, pens etc. Thank you. The monies raised contribute to not just research into a cure – but also support and treatment for people just like me.

This is part of the view which greeted me as I hopped up on stage at the recent breakfast event hosted by the local group Women In Tourism. Quite beautiful don’t you agree?

 

I’ll share more from the event with you in coming posts, but really just wanted to mention how heartwarming these displays of support are. And – there’s plenty more to come – October is going to be a very busy month! (Plus – I’ll get my ‘new set’ in the middle of it all!)
Iconic landmarks around the world will glow pink as part of ‘global illumination’. There will be a host of Pink Ribbon breakfasts, morning tea’s, girls nights in and Pink Mini-Field events held around the country – so if you’re able to head along – please do. Apart from getting behind a great cause – you may just meet some fabulously inspirational people!
Of course the biggest event of the month is Pink Ribbon Day – October 26.
