Breast Cancer Awarness....Appreciation!!
When my team was looking for a charity to promote this month ..at first I could not think of which one I wanted to support and vote for but a number of our team mates had suggest Breast Cancer Awareness. What a great idea that was...I have been going for my check ups but never really gave it a whole lot of thought until I started reading some of the stories that have been posted on Etsy! I know I will be doing these more often....
My team and I have been listing and promoting like crazy...and so far we have helped make 78 sales with percentages going to the cause! Everyday we get more helpers wanting to join our cause...It is great to see all the help and donations rolling in.
I would like to thank all those that have been helping out...
Right now I am featured in 2 treasuries for the cause:

The moderator of our team is listed in the giftguide as well:

I hope our efforts get more women to go for their check ups and to check their own breasts on a regular basis! Early detection does save lives!!
I also would like to thank those who bought from my shop and supported this great cause:

What a wonderful post Mona!
I am so proud at what our team and friends has accomplished for raising funds for Breast Cancer Research. I can't wait to see the totals at the end of the month.
THINK PINK for the month of October!
Lovely post Granny! Your work is beautiful and I'm finding that your heart is even more so! I wish you many more sales this month to support such a wonderful cause!
Love, love, love the breast cancer awareness items. I have several friends and family members who have either battled or succumbed to the disease. I am so happy to see (sew) many woman fighting for the cure!
Way to go!!!!
Beautiful pillow for breast cancer awareness. You are a special lady Mona!
