I have seen a couple of "deals" out there, where if you buy certain items or do certain things, companies will donate money for the fight against breast cancer.
Being that Oct. is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, I thought it would be a good idea to have a nice neat thread we can post these deals in, so everyone in the Deals community can help with the fight!!
So here goes!
1. New Balance Web Express.com is donating $10 on behalf of the customers name for any "Pink Ribbon" shoe purchased through the end of Oct. The donations are to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.
Direct from the site: "Lace Up for the Cure
For every pair of pink ribbon shoes you purchase, New Balance and New Balance Web Express will donate a total of $10.00 to the Susan G. Komen Foundation on your behalf. That's a $10.00 donation on your behalf to help in the fight to eradicate breast cancer. Offer valid until October 31, 2002."
2. (stolen from shibz11689 at FW) Take a short quiz (7 questions) and $1 will be donated to the American Cancer Society or Susan G. Komen Foundation.
Direct from the site: "Breast Cancer is currently the second leading killer of American women and the leading cause of death among women 40 to 55. It affects all women, regardless of shape, size or race.
But you don't have to stand by waiting for the disease to strike you or a loved one. By taking this quiz, $1 will be donated to the American Cancer Society or or the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation.
So help yourself and others by taking the short seven-question quiz."
