LET'S FIGHT BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!
According to the American Cancer Society, there are now about 2.5 million breast cancer survivors living in the United States.
The National Breast Cancer Awareness Month (NBCAM) program is dedicated to increasing awareness about the importance of the early detection of breast cancer through a nationwide campaign held in October. NBCAM started as a weeklong campaign in 1985 with 2 founding members. Today the American Cancer Society is one of many national public service organizations, professional associations, and government agencies that form the NBCAM Board of Sponsors. During NBCAM, the member organizations of the Board of Sponsors join forces to spread the message that early detection of breast cancer followed by prompt treatment saves lives.
THIS IS AMAZING:
"Look Good...Feel Better®"
This free, national public service program is sponsored by the American Cancer Society, the Personal Care Products Council (formerly the Cosmetic, Toiletry and Fragrance Association, or CTFA), and the National Cosmetology Association. Look Good…Feel Better® is dedicated to teaching female cancer patients beauty techniques to help restore their appearance and self-image during cancer treatments. Services include two-hour group makeover workshops and one-on-one salon consultations. The program also provides educational materials.
Let's help FIGHT Breast Cancer! :)

Great post. As a longtime ACS volunteer, I appreciate you helping to spread the word about their many great services like Look Good, Feel Better.
And as this is NBCAM, I'd love you to check out this 30 sec video -- http://www.ahamoment.com/vote/leigh -- about the 'aha moment' of the woman who launched the Feel Your Boobies t-shirt campaign. If you like it, vote for it with one simple click, as the top vote-getters will be used as aha moment TV commercials next year. And more exposure would be a really good thing. Voting ends Oct 31!
Thx,
