Tip of the Week

This weeks tip of the week is . . .

The tip of the week this week is actually more of a public service announcement. As you guys may already know October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Each year Yoplait Yogurt runs its Save Lids to Save Lives campaign. For every pink yogurt lid you send into Yoplait by December 31, 2010, Yoplait will donate 10 cents to Susan G. Komen for the Cure, up to $1.6 million dollars with a guaranteed minimum donation of $500,000. It's easy! Just save, rinse, and mail in the lids! So please, mail your pink lids to:

Save Lids to Save Lives
P.O. Box 420704
El Paso, TX 88542-0704

This is especially easy if you buy yogurt anyway! Other companies are making similar contributions. For example, the Gillette Corporation has a Venus Embrace Razor in pink and for every pink razor sold they will donate 50 cents to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. The special edition pink razor also includes a "breast awareness booklet". So, next time you're at the store check it out and see if some of the products you buy are making contributions. . .most often these products come in pink packaging. You can also check online to see what companies are making donations during Breast Cancer Awareness Month or any breast cancer awareness events that may be happening in your area.

Early Detection Saves Lives! So take care and be healthy!
