Corrine Stokoefor today's roundup of friday faves, i found some really cute and useful products that ALL benefit breast cancer research when you purchase through these approved retailers.
breast cancer research is important to me personally because my great grandmother anna (who my girl anabelle was named after) was a breast cancer survivor. she has such an incredible story of strength and was a fighter her whole life, not just with breast cancer but many other challenges, including raising my grandfather as a single mother throughout his entire childhood.
the staggering facts on breast cancer:
one in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer
breast cancer is the second leading cause of death in women
220,000 women will be diagnosed this year with breast cancer, and 40,000 will die of breast cancer
here are some of the cutest and most useful breast cancer awareness items you can purchase that all give back to breast cancer research when you purchase. i love feel-good purchases!

Love this message. Look up on Facebook N.E.D (No Evidence of Disease). It’s a group of GYN Oncologists who have become a band trying to get the message out about how common and dangerous gynecological cancer is…. It doesn’t get the money and awareness that breast cancer does and it’s just as important. It’s a great and inspirational group of doctors.
cool thanks for telling me emily! i’ve never heard of that but i’m going to research it now. 😀
Also, in case there are any well endowed women (c-cup or larger) looking for the best support when it comes to sports bras, ENELL is donating 10% of the proceeds from their HOPE (pink) bras sales. You can even vote for the breast cancer charity they donate to! http://www.enell.com/2014/10/vote-for-hope-charity.html
love it! thanks kristen!
