Pink Ribbon Housewares& Appliances - Helping to Find a Cure for Breast Cancer

Support the Pink Ribbon Campaign

By Mariette Mifflin, About.com

Looking for a way to help find a cure for breast cancer? A pink ribbon product is just one small way we can support this important research. Pink appliances and housewares serve a threefold purpose: A portion of the purchase price funds research, you get to enjoy the item, and the color pink reminds us, lest we forget, that we can help find a cure for breast cancer. Here are a few pink ribbon products with information regarding donations.
