Many of us know someone who has been affected by breast cancer—a friend, mother, sister, or maybe even yourself. Approximately one in eight women in the United States will get breast cancer during her lifetime. Each year, more than 40,000 women die from breast cancer.  Early detection of breast cancer can help improve a woman’s chance of survival.

 

The pink ribbon has become the universal symbol of breast cancer, illustrating the cause, raising awareness and bringing together women in solidarity. From a simple piece of ribbon affixed with a pin, we are able to show our support for loved ones battling breast cancer and our hope for a brighter future.
