I don't mean to be a c**t or anything but I can't seem to understand Breast Cancer Awareness day at all. As it stands it recieves an incredible amount of research money and promotion. Does it need any more?

it's not just about the money...it's about raising the awareness of women and men to the detection of cancer...
the money can't replace your loved ones

They're not doing that great a job of raising awareness. This thread is the first I've heard of Breast Cancer Awareness Day.

not pink eyeliner surely?
any cancer awareness day should be thought about.
just like the aids awareness day - is that also in pink?

by emilystrange
aids is a red ribbon.
and yes, pink eyeliner..

by MadameButterfly

I lost 2 aunts to it, so I'd say "yes, more money" any day of the week!
@ everyone who supports this!

Though I do support Breast Cancer Awareness (mainly due to the fact that my mum has recently been through the experience), I think it's a shame that prostate cancer isn't "promoted" (wrong word) more through the use of blue ribbons and awareness days.

i hear what you're saying
Libby but i think that all the different charities each having their own day would be overkill...for some it's already reached saturation point...and i can understand the point raised by Gollam...
eventually we would be walking into a potential charity week every day of the year...
on a happier note...the guys and gals that i work with (and it stands at just 22 people) managed to raise £72.00 which is fantastic IMHO
to all who took pink to work today
