Support the Cause Through Your Shopping
It's October, which means it's Breast Cancer Awareness Month. It's an annual campaign to raise awareness and its impact on people, as many of us know someone who has been diagnosed, survived, or lost their battle with breast cancer.
According to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (BCRF), it's the most common cancer diagnosed among women and the most common cancer globally, where one woman is diagnosed with it every 14 seconds! It's estimated that about 313,510 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in the United States in 2024.
According to the National Breast Cancer Coalition (NBCC), breast cancer can affect anyone, and familial history of breast cancer, aging, and genetic mutations can increase your chances. That's why early diagnosis with self-examinations or with your physician during your annual visits and regular mammograms past the age of 40 can help save lives.
Many beauty, fashion, and lifestyle brands have products that support organizations that fund breast cancer research, screening, and treatment. I love that these brands are transparent about how much they donate to the causes and which organizations they support. Support these brands, as every dollar makes a difference in someone's life. However, think pink not only in October but all the time.
SPRHRA (Superhera) has decided to formally increase their donation rate to 55% proceeds from their Breast Cancer Awareness Tee to the Kay Yow Cancer Fund to ensure a significant impact in the breast cancer community for October.

A portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Susan G. Komen Foundation. The HOPE Breast Cancer Awareness Pack is near and dear to co-founder Katie’s heart, as her mom passed away from an aggressive form of breast cancer at 55 (she only lived long enough to spend time with her first grandchild). K’lani evokes the spirit of aloha woven into every design and will continue to advocate for the fight against breast cancer.
