I’m guessing that most of us know at least one other person who has been affected by breast cancer. I’m also guessing that each of us with someone special who has been affected by breast cancer has an interest in making sure that all of the research that’s being done in order to prevent, treat, and eradicate this disease can continue. What if I told you that there was an easy way for you to donate to the cause, while having some fun at the same time?

We had a series of Direct Messages which included her asking…
