The Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation will be having their annual Run for the Cure on October 4th, 2009 this year. They have been busy promoting the Run by participating in numerous events around Victoria, BC. Media coverage by Victoria News has also been beneficial to spreading the word (click here). Be on the look-out in the next couple of months for the Pink Tent in your community and show your support!

Mother's Day!
Looking for that special gift for Mother's Day? How about a 'Love Your Breasts' t-shirt! They are meant to inspire positive emotions towards our bodies. $5 from each sale benefits either:
the BC Cancer Foundation
the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation
A perfect gift for Mom that helps Breast Cancer Research ~ what could be better?! Check 'em out here:

Here's a little background info about the tees:
About a year ago, a friend asked me to create an art piece for a silent auction benefitting the BC Cancer Foundation. One word came to mind ~ love, and at that moment a design popped into my head. I began creating and the ‘Love Your Breasts’ t-shirt was born! A design meant to inspire positive emotions towards ourselves and our bodies.
The design is a heart made from words describing ‘breasts’. The universal symbol of the heart creates feelings of love, while also encompassing the two breasts. The design is meant to spark a smile.
My company, The Gypsy Soul, has been partnering with the BC Cancer Foundation for the past year and selling the t-shirts at their retail location in Vancouver. Recently, wanting to reach across Canada with this idea, we have been working with the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation as well.
The t-shirts are currently available on our website:

$5 from each tee goes to either the BC Cancer Foundation or the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation.
The Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation has a goal set for Canada to be breast cancer free by 2020. To accomplish this, early detection and a positive mindset are essential. I believe this design will promote awareness and increase support in achieving this goal.
