Three Ways to Help Provide Comfort for Those Suffering From Breast Cancer
(firmenpresse) - MISSION, KS -- (Marketwire) -- 10/13/11 -- (Family Features) Breast cancer affects millions of women, which in turn affects their families and their friends.
You don't have to have breast cancer in order to help raise awareness of it and provide comfort. There are things you can do to take on this disease and make a difference in your own life and in the lives of others while providing much-needed comfort and support.
Multiply your impact on breast cancer awareness by getting a group of friends together to take action:
Host a Fundraising Party. Put together a girls' night out or a potluck dinner party, and challenge guests to bring donations to support breast cancer research.
Get Moving. Sign up as a group to participate in a walk or run event that raises awareness or funds.
Volunteer Together. Check out local breast cancer awareness events and find ways your group of friends can serve together. If there isn't a local event, sponsor one of your own. Visit to find out how.
You can personalize and send free virtual Comfort Packages to friends and family via a digital tool on the Hanes Facebook page. For each package sent, Hanes will donate $1 to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, Inc. (up to $25,000) to promote early cancer detection and provide mammograms for those in need.
The Comfort Package is fully customizable with photos, videos, recipes, T-shirt designs, music and messages. Sending a Comfort Package is one of many gestures that can brighten someone's day and help provide support and comfort to a loved one.
As a longtime supporter of breast cancer awareness, Hanes has made cash and in-kind donations totaling $1 million since 2009 and is donating up to $125,000 to NBCF this year. Learn more at or .
The next time you are at the grocery store or the mall, think about purchasing the pink version of your favorite items. Your purchase can help raise money as well as awareness for the cause.
In addition, wearing your favorite pink items is a stylish way to show support and demonstrate your commitment. Consider wearing pink once a week in October to feel connected to the cause.
