To mark the occasion of Pink October, BIG reminds us that research, which is cruelly under-funded, is crucial to improving patient survival and quality of life. To make up for this shortfall, BIG is organizing several activities to highlight the importance of donations to support academic research. Without donations, research cannot progress: it is crucial to finding treatments for all types of breast cancer, including the most advanced or rarest forms. A portion of the profits from each ribbon sold is donated to BIG to support breast cancer research. A portion of the profits from each bracelet sold is donated to BIG in support of breast cancer research. To find out more about BIG: www.bigagainstbreastcancer.org
