October is breast cancer awareness month...time to get out your pink ribbons and do your part to help find a cure for this devastating illness. Breast cancer is the second leading cause of death among US women - each year it takes roughly 40,000 of our mothers, sisters, wives, aunts, and grandmothers from us. It takes our men too, btw. Yep. One out of every 100 new cases of breast cancer diagnosed is found in men.
This year, several members of the eBay DIY community have come together to host a charity DIY auction to support breast cancer research. This auction will be hosted on eBay, and will start on Sunday, September 25, 2005. So far, there are eleven participants, and each is donating an item with 100% of the proceeds going to breast cancer charity. This auction is the brainchild of tatdimg - Jen - and the overwhelming positive response she has received from members of the DIY community has almost *almost* made me have faith in the goodness of people again :)
Don't miss it. And be sure to bid! And really, you don't want to miss the first *and only* aNGrYGiRL Gear shrug with....*gasp*....PINK on it. I know, I know. It almost gives me hives. But I have to keep telling myself its for a good cause :)
