Breast Cancer Awareness Month | Our Favorite Companies Giving Back

October is well-liked for quite a few reasons. Whether it be the cool air, the falling leaves, or pumpkin flavors in all your favorite restaurants…this month has a lot to offer for us all, and typically gets plenty of attention. But one of our favorite parts, like many women, is the chance to use this month not only as a time to celebrate the change in season but as a time to spread the color pink and to focus on a more important topic: breast cancer.

October is the official Breast Cancer Awareness Month, giving us a chance to reflect on, invest in, and come to terms with a disease that affects 1 in 8 U.S. women. 

Sometimes it can be difficult to figure out how to best serve this cause, and how to best get involved with something that seems so overwhelming in nature. First and foremost, there are plenty of organizations (Susan G. Komen, Race for the Cure, Breast Cancer Research Foundation, Living Beyond Breast Cancer and more) that are actively donating to research and prevention initiatives in which you can donate your time or money. But besides these, we wanted to present a few options for those of us wanting to adjust our normal shopping habits, or find new products that are actively contributing to the elimination of this disease.

So today we’re breaking down our top pink products, or products from companies that have vowed to expend a portion of their profits to breast cancer awareness and research efforts. Let’s get started!
