October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and brands across product categories are rallying to release pink-themed products to not only raise awareness, but raise much needed funds. It’s near impossible, unfortunately, to not be touched by breast cancer in one way or another given that it’s the most common cancer in women in the United States, except for skin cancers. It is about 30% (or 1 in 3) of all new female cancers each year.
Keep reading for a look at brands that have already started releasing products in support of charities that encourage and fund breast cancer screenings, education, treatment and research.
