October is breast cancer awareness month. With one in eight women contracting the deadly disease, we all need to sit up and pay attention. Fashion lovers can show they care with these fun handbags.
Komen for the Cure is the world’s largest grassroots network of breast cancer survivors and activists. These tireless men and women work to save lives, ensure quality care for breast cancer sufferers, and fund further research for a cure. This important charity has designed two cute backpacks for busy women. Choose from the sexy pink Cure on the Go backpack or the classic white drawstring variety. Both cost less 
than $10 from the Komen Promise Shop.
Designer Tory Burch has designed a limited edition pink and navy tote and matching cosmetic bag to celebrate breast cancer awareness month. Ten percent of all October sales of this spacious shopper, and all the other Tory Burch bags, will benefit the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. This vital resource funds innovative breast cancer research worldwide and increases public awareness about breast health.
Online retailers are also doing their bit to help out. eBags promises to donate 10% of the sales from any pink bag to Komen for the Cure, while Handbag Report will donate a whopping 20% of the proceeds from pink purses to the breast cancer charity of your choice.
There’s never been a better time to think, and wear, pink!
