Robert Doyle READ TIME: 2 MIN.
NEW YORK - In support of Breast Cancer Awareness month, Caswell-Massey and GiannaRose Atelier have created a "Think Pink" program, donating a portion of the proceeds from the sales of Fresh Cut Flowers scented products and Pink Ribbon Soaps to Breast Cancer Awareness charities: Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation & Making Strides Against Breast Cancer.
Since 1993, more than $400 million dollars has been raised to help fight breast cancer through walks.In 2010 alone, nearly 800,000 walkers across the country collected more than $60 million to save lives from breast cancer. The American Cancer Society currently invests more in breast cancer research to better understand, prevent, and cure the disease than in any other cancer site.
Founded in 2006 in honor of Nancy Block-Zenna, a young woman who was diagnosed at age 35 with triple negative breast cancer and died 2 1/2 years later in 2007. In response to Nancy's diagnosis, her close friends launched the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation� to raise awareness and support research in the area of triple negative breast cancer.
The mission is to raise awareness of triple negative breast cancer and to support scientists and researchers in their efforts to determine the definitive causes of triple negative breast cancer, so that effective detection, diagnosis, prevention and treatment can be pursued and achieved.
The "Think Pink" program includes the donation of a portion of the proceeds from the sales of Fresh Cut Flowers scented products and Pink Ribbon Soaps. "Think Pink" products include:
