Of those, the bottom right sticker is for a real organization.
If I can have a moment of your time and if the moderators will permit me, I'd like to talk about it and a very serious issue facing the world today.
October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month in America.
Breast cancer is the most common cancer in the world after lung cancer. According to the American Cancer Society (ACS), an estimated 192,370 new cases of invasive breast cancer are expected to be diagnosed among women in the United States this year, as well as an estimated 1,910 new cases of invasive breast cancer among men. An estimated 40,170 are expected to die from the disease in 2009 alone. The United Kingdom is also no stranger to this deadly disease. In Britain, 45,000 cases diagnosed each year and 12,500 will die from breast cancer.
Save the Ta-tas is one of the many organizations dedicated to raising funds to help find a cure for this horrible disease. Believing that laughter is a powerful medicine, Ta-tas has raised to date over $359,000 in proceeds to donate towards the CONCERN Foundation, a non-profit, primarily volunteer organization, currently funding 47 cancer research projects at leading institutions in the United States and abroad, raising over $40 million over the past 40 years for cancer research and awarding funds to over 500 promising cancer researchers throughout the United States and around the world.
