Breast Cancer Awareness Month

To celebrate Breast Cancer Awareness Month this October, we've teamed up with Moore Office Supplies to give away 4 pink ribbon-inspired office chairs to survivors. It's simple. Just tell us about someone in your life who has survived breast cancer...

Too many myths exist about the risk, contraction and treatment of breast cancer. It's time to put five of them to rest.

Apparently it’s quite simple: exercise reduces a woman’s risk of breast cancer.

Modern treatments for cancer tend to be hard on a patient’s body. And some cancers, particularly breast cancer, can be very aggressive and difficult to fight. For these reasons, more and more patients are seeking complementary alternative medical (CAM) treatments.

Here are seven breast cancer awareness charities that are most deserving of your support this month.

When it comes to the fight against breast cancer, not all pinks are equal. As we become more aware of the “pinkwashing” of America, we know that buying something in a shade of pink isn't necessarily doing anything to help the fight against breast cancer -- and some products can actually hinder it. That's why, as we spend our October supporting Breast Cancer Awareness Month, getting the word out and doing our individual best to fund the cause as we see fit, we need to make sure we're supporting the fight well. (And of course, looking good while doing it -- that's also nice.)

Only by knowing the statistics of breast cancer will we be able to better arm ourselves against it.

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Here's a list of seven of the best charities most deserving of your support.
