National Breast Cancer Awareness Month
Breast Cancer Awareness Month began in October 1985 as a partnership between the American Cancer Society and the pharmaceutical division of Imperial Chemical Industries, with the goal of promoting mammography as an important tool in the early detection of breast cancer.
Today, the pink ribbon remains a powerful symbol of breast cancer awareness, hope, strength, and support, and powerful people who have survived.
Wear your pink ribbon proudly in honor of those who are fighting, those who have overcome, and those whose lives have been touched by this devastating disease. Together, we can help raise awareness, encourage early detection, and show our support for the countless individuals and families affected by breast cancer.
Think Pink. Spread Awareness. Show Your Support.
