Go RocknBauble Pink for Breast Cancer Awareness Month 2010
This annual global health awareness campaign is promoted by major breast cancer organizations every October to increase awareness of the disease as well as to raise funds for research, prevention and finding a cure. RocknBauble goes pink.
- Orlando, FL (1888PressRelease) October 02, 2010 - The Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign for 2010 offers information and support to those affected by breast cancer through numerous channels. In addition to providing a platform for breast cancer charities to raise awareness of their work and of the disease, BCAM is also an opportunity to remind women to be breast aware for earlier detection. National Breast Cancer Awareness Month's core message is the importance of early detection, with a special emphasis on regular mammography exams. The national BCA program began in 1985 and mammography rates have more than doubled for women age 50 and older and breast cancer deaths have declined.
RocknBauble supports Breast Cancer Awareness by donating a percentage of Breast Cancer Awareness Jewelry sales every month because breast health is a year-round concern. The RocknBauble Breast Cancer Awareness Jewelry Line is hand crafted from the highest quality materials from artisans all over the world. RocknBauble also maintains several BCA websites that provide Breast Cancer Awareness resources, information, videos and news.
About Breast Cancer Awareness Month:
Breast Cancer Awareness Month (BCAM) aims to have women of all ages know that breast health is a year-round concern. Early detection as well as education about breast cancer can be two of the best possible "medicines" toward fighting the disease. Breast cancer is the second most common cancer among women, and breast cancer recurrence is possible even in women who have had a mastectomy (breast removal). The objective of BCAM from the start has been to promote mammography as the most effective weapon in the fight against breast cancer. Women make up more than 50 percent of the American workforce. Approximately 44 percent of those diagnosed with cancer will be employed at the time of their diagnosis.
A good resource is the National Breast Cancer Awareness Month (NBCAM) organization, it is comprised of several national public service organizations, professional medical associations, and government agencies working in partnership to build breast cancer awareness, share information and provide access to screening services. NBCAM and nbcam.org, are a year-round resource for patients, survivors, caregivers and the general public. Another proactive BCA organization is Susan G. Komen for the Cure which has more than 100,000 volunteers and activists that work through 125 Komen Affiliates to mobilize more than one million friends and neighbors every year through events like the Komen Race for the Cure - the world's largest and most successful awareness and fundraising event for breast cancer. More information is available at Komen.org
