Breast Cancer Stamps

I recently sent out an email to my friends and family ecouraging them to purchase breast cancer stamps. They are $ 11. per sheet. I had a recent conversation with our local postmaster and he said he thought that most if not all of the difference in price goes to research. His son is an oncolgist at Dana Farber in Boston so I assume this information is acuurate.
Many people that I wrote to said they were unaware that they even existed. Think about the enormous effect just purchasing the stamps would make if all our friends and their friends and families purchsed them on a regular basis. They cost a little over a dollar than just the run of the mill stamps. I've bought them since I was diagnosed in '04.
Just a thought....
