Since on St. Patricks day people like to wear green I thought it would be nice if fellow members would like to show pictures of pink ribbons for the awareness month.

Hello HillFolk-

Participating in local events also helps raising funds and brings awareness to the general public.

I had the pleasure of participating in a local bicycle ride "Bike Against the Odds" - a great event and an even greater cause!

Cheers!

What a nice thought Hillfolk!!

I had a mammogram as a "baseline"... it wasn't fun but it wasn't as painful as I had heard it would be... please encourage all your female friends and loved ones to get them...

And in case you didn't know you can actually raise money for woman to get low cost mammograms just by clicking on a link:

(copy and paste)...

This is no scam (according to snopes.com) the ads pay for the mammograms...
