Awareness bracelets are still going strong as a fundraising and advocacy item. You can find bracelets in every color of the rainbow to represent various causes.
In particular, pink is instantly recognizable as the color for breast cancer. Many nonprofits that advocate for those effected by breast cancer have a lot of publicity and events going on during October, which is breast cancer awareness month. If you’re part of one of these groups you may be looking for some pink items to sell or distribute.
When your supporters wear pink bracelets, pins or buttons they are providing publicity for the cause and your organization in particular. I’ve also found that many survivors and family members wear these items with pride. Somehow these bracelets provide a bit of comfort and strength as they battle the disease.
You can find a wide variety of breast cancer fundraiser items at websites like FastTrack Fundraising.
