National Breast Cancer Awareness Month may have ended in October, but the need for awareness continues on all year round. With that in mind ... I wanted to introduce my readers to Pink Together, an online community on MySpace where those touched by breast cancer can connect and provide support, comfort, and encouragement to one another.
You can support breast cancer by simply supporting the brands that make Pink Together possible. General Mills has proudly turned the following brands pink to support the Susan G Komen for the Cure Fund: Cheerios® Cereal, Cheerios® Snack Mix, Chex® Select Mix, Total® Cereal, Cinnamon Toast Crunch® Cereal, Nature Valley® Granola Bars, Fiber One® Bars and Cereal, Progresso® Soup, Green Giant® Frozen Vegetables, Hamburger Helper® Skillet Meal Mixes, Pillsbury® Crescents and Sweet Rolls and Refrigerated Cookie Dough and Grands! Biscuits, Betty Crocker® Ready to Spread Frosting and Muffin Mixes and Warm Delights® Dessert Mixes, Cascadian Farm® Granola Bars and Cereal, and Yoplait® Yogurt.
Additionally, you might consider doing some shopping at ShopKomen.com, where 25 percent of the merchandise purchase price benefits Susan G. Komen for the Cure® in the fight against breast cancer.
As a thank you for spreading the word about ways you can support breast cancer, MyBlogSpark & PinkTogether.com have teamed up to offer my readers a chance to win the Inspiring Hope gift basket that includes a sleeved travel mug, a running ribbon charm bracelet, a pink leather strap keychain, a pink cinch bag, and a set of inspirational note cards. I was sent one of these same gift baskets myself and I must tell you, the travel mug has come in super handy already!
