October is Breast Cancer Month

October is Breast Cancer Month and we at She Beads are showing our support. With 1 in 8 women in the U.S. developing breast cancer during their lifetime, not many family or friends have not been affected by it. Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer related deaths in women. It it is our hope through the support of One in a Million Campaign (breast cancer research) and Making Strides Against Breast Cancer(American Cancer Society) by donating as much as possible we can help make a difference in the fight to end cancer.

We have several handmade jewelry pieces featuring the Charity Beads breast cancer support ribbon collection of Breast Cancer Awareness Bracelets, Earrings, Key Chains, and Necklaces. 30% of the purchase price is donated to the cause and feature our handmade polymer clay beads. They are a wonderful way to fashionably show others you care.

You may have seen some of the NFL Players proudly wearing pink during the games this month in support of breast cancer awareness. A new push this year is NFL Pink: A Crucial Catch Day, October 25th.
