(1888PressRelease) September 28, 2010 - From now until October 31st, Beaded Royalty will donate 100% of the profits for each Breast Cancer Jewelry item purchased. Breast cancer jewelry can be viewed and purchased online at http://www.beadedroyalty.com/breast-cancer-jewelry.htm. On November 1, 2010, Beaded Royalty will write a check to the American Cancer Society for the total amount collected.

"This fundraiser is in honor of a close friend who is currently fighting breast cancer," said Alicia Staz, owner of Beaded Royalty. "She lives outside Harrisburg, PA where she works as an engineer. She is married to her high school sweetheart and they have a 5-year old daughter."

Classic symptoms of breast cancer include a new lump that does not go away, spontaneous discharge from the nipple, a change in the contours of the breast, redness or pitting of the skin. The best form of prevention is regular screenings for breast cancer before symptoms are exhibited. All women should do a Breast Self-Exam on a monthly basis. In women younger than 40, a breast exam should be part of their routine annual physical. In women older than 40, a mammogram should be performed on a yearly basis. 

You are invited to talk with a representative from Beaded Royalty to discuss the Breast Cancer Awareness Fundraiser.
