Do You Think Beyond Pink?

by Holly Schippers | September 30, 2011 | Bookmark +

Do you feel a little pinked out some Octobers? It seems like every company in the industry has jumped on the pink bandwagon and while it is a very worthy cause there are other things out there worth fighting for. I do not know anyone who has not been touched by cancer in some way shape or form whether it is a friend or family member or friend of a friend, etc. 

One way to support the cancer cause is to volunteer time to Look Good Feel Better. There is nothing more amazing than spending a session with those fighting against or having just survived cancer and giving them the power to feel beautiful on the outside. I always feel that I learn more from the attendees about life than they learn from me about beauty!

There are so many causes and cancers out there that deserve our attention in October — and year round. One close to my heart is Pregnancy and Infancy loss. And a very worthy cause that can rally the salon troops to that end is the Angel Teddy Bear Foundation.

For those of you who think beyond pink, what is the cause near and dear to your heart and where can we learn more about it?
