Pink for October

[pelf81]

Would you consider going Pink for October? If you don't already know it, October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Yes, it is THAT important that a whole month is dedicated to creating and spreading awareness on breast cancer.

You don't have to redo your entire theme, really. That would take way too long. Simply put, you could just change your banner image to a pinkish one, or change your header colour (to pink, of course), or maybe just the colour of your link.

And when you're done, grab one of these pink buttons/badges and place it on your blog to show your support. Or better still, if you have time and more importantly, the expertise, you could also design some buttons/badges for the event.

My blog is already pink. What about yours?

This is a great idea. I will plan on doing this for October. I've had a great grandma, great aunt, and grandma all get breast cancer. All them are from my moms side and so my mom is pretty sure we will get it when she is about 70. It's old, but still.

I am so sorry to learn about that. If you would write a short story about this, I could post it up on the Pink for October site. There is a category for people who wish to share some personal stories on how "breast cancer" has affected them.

So far, a total of 352 sites have signed up to go pink. Have you?

Also, I have just kick-started the first of many contests on the Pink for October website. Do play along, who knows, you could be our lucky winner

This is a really great idea. I won't be ready in time for this year but if it is still going on next year I'll change my sites over

Maybe I should change some PINK on Bloggeries. But where?

Hopefully I"ll be reminded of it this weekend. I like that idea though.
