October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and I have created a collection of 25 products that support this great cause! Each of these products impacts Breast Cancer Awareness in a special way.
Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in women. It has touched many of us in some way, some more than others. This post is created to applaud and honor the courage and fortitude of those diagnosed with breast cancer and their loved ones.
Here are some important statistics you should know:
- According to breastcancer.org, approximately 1 in 8 U.S. women (just under 12%) will develop invasive breast cancer over the course of her lifetime.
- In 2013, an estimated 296,980 new cases of breast cancer are expected to be diagnosed in women in the United States.
- An estimated 2,240 new cases of invasive breast cancer are expected to be diagnosed in men in the U.S. in 2013.

Gift Items For Breast Cancer Awareness
(1) This Teleflora’s Pink Grace Bouquet (starting at $54.95) is absolutely gorgeous! I have seen it in person and it took my breath away! This lovely bouquet includes pink roses, pink spray roses, hot pink carnations, and soft pink alstroemeria in a sleek contemporary vase.
Teleflora is partnering with The Mindful Shopper to offer a GIVEAWAY of one of these beautiful bouquets to one special winner. Check out the end of this post to enter…
(2) This fun Good Karmal Give Back Gift Basket ($74) features pieces of all natural caramel, with each piece wrapped in a “fortune” inscribed with a quote of wise words. These yummy caramels come in a keepsake basket hand-woven from the leaf of the Pandan tree, a completely renewable resource. Flavors include vanilla, sea salt, chocolate sea salt, pomegranate, espresso, green apple, and chipotle.
(3) This Limited Edition Breast BFFLBag® ($100) is a wonderful gift to give to anyone you know who has been diagnosed with breast cancer. It includes a beautiful bright pink zippered quilted designer tote packed with essentials for breast cancer surgery recovery (exclusive heart-shaped axillapilla® comfort pillow; mybody® skin care gift pack; Bio-Oil® moisturizing scar treatment; a folder for important papers, cards, and instructions; a box of 12 KIND bars; collapsible water bottle; and more). This wonderful gift is loaded with love, friendship, and healing!
Also, KIND and BFFL Co are collecting letters of encouragement for breast cancer patients. These letters will be combined in a booklet and included in anonymously donated bags that will be distributed at the end of October. You can send your letter of encouragement to be included in this great project to bfflco@kindsnacks.com.
Handbags For Breast Cancer Awareness

My favorite product posted by the Mindful Shopper is the Time To Fight T-Shirt for men! I lost my Mother to breast cancer 12 years ago; I have 4 sons and they all want to represent their love for the grandma they never got to know but still love with their whole hearts! They wear the pink t-shirts but having other options, like the t-shirt on this site, is something they would love to wear to support breast cancer awareness! Thanks for the 25 awesome products 🙂
Amy Kathleen says
Jodi:

The Milano tote is lovely but the BFFL basket would be an awesome way to cheer up someone diagnosed and unfortunately we all know someone. Perhaps someday these baskets will not be needed.

Pinned!

the Milano tote is lovely but the BFFL basket would be so awesome to cheer up someone just diagnosed. Hopefully the day will come when they won’t be needed because there will no longer be breast cancer.
Janet Cobb says
Such fantastic awareness products and such a generous giveaway! I lost my husband to brain cancer almost 2 years ago so the biggest part of my support goes to brain tumor research but I do support breast cancer research in any way I can. I gladly shared this on Twitter. Pinterest and Facebook.
Amy Kathleen says
Janet:
I am so sorry to hear about your husband. I can’t imagine how hard that must be. Please know that my heart goes out to you. Thank you so much for stopping by The Mindful Shopper and for sharing this post with your friends and family. So appreciated.

Alexia says
My favorite item would probably be the limited edition Coach Signature Breast Cancer Awareness Fragrance, although ALL OF THEM ARE AWESOME. I am so glad that these companies sponsor these products that give back to breast cancer awareness. My mother in law was diagnosed with breast cancer and had a double mastectomy. I’ve told her how brave and strong I think she is.
Amy Kathleen says
Dear Alexia:
Thank you so much for stopping by. I am sorry to hear about your Mother-In-Law. She is lucky to have such a supportive Daughter-In-Law! My thoughts are with you guys!
