All month long during October, Breast Cancer Awareness is observed. Maybe observed isn't the right term, because there are thousands of fundraisers, tribute walks, and other events supporting and raising money for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

All are encourage to get involved, whether you have breasts or not. Whether you know someone who has been affected by breast cancer or not, you are urged to help promote this movement.
