Get a Breast Cancer Awareness Bracelet

Why You Need to Get One

Do you have a friend or loved one with breast cancer? If so, you definitely should consider showing your support by getting a breast cancer awareness bracelet. I guarantee you it will mean alot to the person afflicted with the disease to see you wearing such a bracelet.

Even if you don’t know someone with the disease, it’s always a good thing to support a cause, and wearing a breast cancer awareness bracelet would show people that you care about fighting against one of the worst diseases in America.

Breast cancer is the most common disease effecting women in North America and Europe. Every woman is at risk for breast cancer. Over two hundred thousand cases of breast cancer have been diagnosed in the past two years and that number is growing. It’s been reported that every twelve minutes, a woman in America dies of breast cancer. It’s is the second leading cause of cancer death in American women behind lung cancer.

That’s why wearing a breast cancer awareness bracelet can mean so much. The women afflicted with this disease should know that they’re not alone. If a person sees you wearing one of the best bracelets, you can tell them about it and hopefully, they will go out and buy one themselves.

Purchasing a breast cancer awareness bracelet is very easy to do. They can be found at your local Target store, or you can purchase one online. They aren’t very expensive, ranging from five to ten dollars. But, if you would like to spend a little more on your bracelet, there are stores that sell bracelets made of pink swarovski crystals, sterling silver, and 14k gold. They can cost anywhere from sixty-five dollars to one hundred and thirty five dollars.

Many of these bracelets have an inspirational message on the side. Some have “share beauty, spread hope” while others have “hope, faith & love”.

If you do decide to get a breast cancer awareness bracelet, be sure to spread the word around about fighting the disease. Because making women (and men) more aware, simply by passing on the word about how to detect breast cancer early, and keeping the buzz going to remind everyone to see a doctor for mammograms and do those self- examinations—it actually saves lives, thousands and thousands of lives.
