Breast Cancer Boob Challenge for Charity

I am participating in a wonderful Challenge for Charity this month on Etsy. It is the Breast Cancer Boob Challenge for Charity. Any shop on Etsy can be a part of it and its soo simple. Just make something new that has anything to do with boobs, pink ribbons, breast cancer, etc. and have it listed by 5pm, September 20. You can have as many items for this challenge as you'd like. For each of those items you sell, all the proceeds will be donated to the Susan G. Komen Foundation for Breast Cancer Research. Also, you can choose one of those items for a fun little contest! From September 20 through September 28, there will be a thread going on Etsy where everyone can take a peek at all the items and vote for their favorite one! And there's even a prize for the winner!


I encourage everyone to check out this thread. Breast cancer is something that has affected everyone in some way. I don't have any family members with breast cancer, but my father has battled prostate cancer and my grandfather lost his battle with tongue cancer. You don't even have to make an item(s) to participate. Buying any of the items up for this challenge helps out. Every little penny helps. Together, we can make a difference and put an end to Breast Cancer.
To get to the thread on Etsy, just click the pink ribbon above.
