Let us all fight… Breast Cancer! PINKTOBER IS HERE!

Breast Cancer Awareness Shopping Event

Fall is here and it’s officially October and it’s time to Think Pink! October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. In 2016, an estimated 246,660 new cases of invasive breast cancer are expected to be diagnosed in women in the U.S alongside about 2,600 new cases of invasive breast cancer in men (yup, you read that right!)  Woman have a 1 in 8 chance of being diagnosed with breast cancer over their lifetime, and for this reason, we ask for your help and support during PINKtober.    

Every Thursday during PINKtober we will be contributing 10% of our profits to Memorial Sloan Kettering Breast Cancer Center.  What does that mean?  Let me tell you!  When you shop on Thursdays in October you could be helping your friend, loved one or a complete stranger fight the biggest fight of their life!  With more than 80 breast cancer specialists, Memorial Sloan Kettering is internationally recognized as the worldwide leader in pioneering new ways to treat breast cancer.  Their leadership and innovation has resulted in optimal outcomes for the 4,500 new breast cancer patients they treat each year and many many more who benefit from the research and technology of their team!  By shopping at Michaels Consignment on Thursdays in October, you can be apart of helping today's treatments become tomorrow’s cures.

This month, come snag that gorgeous pair of stilettos or dress you have been eyeing all in the name of helping someone.  While you might not need that new bag, you certainly have a reason to get it!  Come get your shop on this October!  We look forward to seeing you and thank you in advance for helping us fight breast cancer!
