Breast Cancer Awareness Month is Upon Us

And with it comes the marketing of breast cancer to increase sales. Although some campaigns such as AVON, breast cancer stampa and Yoplait yougurt do help breast cancer research, there are many others out there just for personal gain. Choose carefully what you purchase

There are also several breast cancer "non-profit" web sites that more resemble EBAY. These websites must sell merchandise to cover their administrative expenses and the high salaries of their directors and in some cases over $200,000 per year:
http://www.charitynavigator.org/ Search for your favorite cancer "non-profit" We are not listed because we seek only enough funds to cover our needs less than $100,000 per year.
The HER2 Support Group is run entirely by volunteers that receive no direct compensation.

We fully support Breast Cancer Action's "Think Before You Pink" program: http://www.thinkbeforeyoupink.org/
A new twist: The HER2 Gene is now being marketed www.her2genes.com
