I would venture to say that most, if not all of us, have been touched in some way by the horrible realities of breast cancer. In the past handful of years, I have had several friends, mentors, and my own mother-in-law who have fought and won the battle against breast cancer.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. And to help raise awareness, Snapfish is hosting the Share to Care program, where users can send a free photo greeting card to someone they love. There are also plenty of calendars, photo books, notebooks, notepads and stickers for purchase at the Snapfish BCA Store, with 30% of proceeds benefiting BreastCancer.org, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing the most up-to-date, reliable, medically-reviewed information on breast health and breast cancer.

How meaningful would it be to send a special message to someone who has currently experienced breast cancer, letting them know that you care and are thinking of them as they fight the fight? I already have my list going.

While you’re there, you might want to participate in the “Share to Care” photo contest, where you can share with the Snapfish community the ways you personally support the fight against breast cancer (one of these years, I’m going to participate in a Race For the Cure…) . Twenty winners will be selected to receive a $300 donation from Snapfish in their name to the breast cancer organization of their choice. That’s totally sweet.
