Breast Cancer Awareness Month

[mauisun]

Imagine life without breast cancer. It will happen. How quickly is up to you.​

It is a race against time, with the lives of our mothers, sisters, daughters and friends hanging in the balance. Each year 1.1 million women worldwide are diagnosed with breast cancer, and 410,000 die from the disease. Imagine being able to stop the breast cancer disease and its tragic consequences.​

At Susan G. Komen for the Cure®, we make every penny count. In fact, 85 cents of every dollar spent goes toward our treating and curing breast cancer.​

It may be your donation that pushes us past a major turning point in discovering and delivering the cures. On behalf of the women who will be diagnosed this year, next year and in the decade ahead, we urge you to do as much as you can as soon as you can. You can rest assured we'll put your contribution to good use. Freedom Smoke USA will give all proceeds donated to Sothern Arizona Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure.Please begin today by making a donation towards a tomorrow free from breast cancer.​

​

I'm not sure what you're doing is Legal, but I guess it's the thought that counts...

Do you have permission from the Southern Arizona Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure to use their name and/or authorized to collect donations for them??

 

[mauisun]

yes SpaceKitty it is definitely legal. we did it last year as we will do it every year. Last year my father, a doctor of 43 years, was dying from cancer. we collected, and donated all funds to the Komen foundation for cancer research. my father passed away this New Years Day. so we are once again collecting funds for this worth organization, and such a worthy cause.
In our stores we collect for the Wounded Warriors Fund.
for both organizations we have approval. and Pam and I match penny for penny every single amount collected.
for Pamela and I, money is not everything. Helping others is. We are passing this onto our employees and our children who we hope continue on with such worthy support of causes long after we are gone.
