October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month | KaTom Restaurant ...

Breast cancer: it can be debilitating. It claims the number 2 spot in the leading cause of cancer death and is the second most common cancer among women (1 in 8 women have the chance of being diagnosed with breast cancer). More than likely you know someone who has been affected by this condition. But did you know that breast cancer isn?t just a lady ailment as many tend to believe? Over 2,000 new cases of male breast cancer are diagnosed in the USA every year, a number that is sadly increasing.

It?s no wonder that so many people are involved in the fight against the horrible scourge that is breast cancer. This month you?ll probably be seeing more breast cancer related events?and for good reason! October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month for those of you who haven?t noticed yet. The campaign for this month is designed to bring more attention and raise funds for further research into the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of breast cancer.

Do you want to help in the battle against breast cancer? Fantastic brands like KitchenAid and Anchor Hocking have made it their goal to help bring even more awareness for this cause by specifically creating breast cancer pink items.

Anchor Hocking?s Hope collection includes great items like a pink double insulated drinking bottle and a charming BCA mug.

KitchenAid has quite a selection of Cook for the Cure items! KitchenAid?s Komen Pink food processor is the perfect choice for any KitchenAid fan. Are you more interested in a way to blend your drinks, not your food? KitchenAid is also selling a Komen Pink blender with 5 speeds. If that wasn?t enough, KitchenAid has also come out with a very fine Komen Pink hand mixer as well as stand mixers in Komen Pink, white with a Komen Pink band, and their new anniversary Raspberry shade. What?s the best thing about these products? KitchenAid is working with the Susan G. Komen foundation which means that every KitchenAid BCA item sold, part of the proceeds go to breast cancer research. KitchenAid has successfully raised 8 million dollars since they first became dedicated to the cause in 2001.

Help raise money for a better understanding about stopping breast cancer by taking a look at these honorable kitchen products. You may find something you like, you might not. Just keep in mind that whatever you do choose, you?re helping to save lives with your purchase.
