October

October is National Breast Canacer Awareness Month, which is an annual international health compaign organized by major breast cancer charities to increase awareness of the disease and to raise funds for research into its cause, prevention, diagnosis, treatment and cure.  The campaign also offers information and support to all those affected by breast cancer. 

It was founded in 1985 to pomote mammography as the most effective weapon in the fight against breast cancer, as early detection is important.  Pink ribbons were first used in the fall of 1991 when the Susan G. Komen Foundation handed them out to participants in its New York race for breast cancer survivors.

Bar-B-Cutie supports this cause and will have a team in the October 29th Susan G. Komen Race for a Cure in Brentwood, TN.  Please feel free to help in this cause by joining our team to walk or by donating at the website below.  Thank you for your support!!!
