Freschetta Proud To Support Pink Program and a Giveaway

I am a very fortunate blogger to be a part of the Freschetta Fresh Connection Team. They recently sent me a letter telling me about their Proud to Support Pink Porgram. They are going to try to raise $50,000 to doante to the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center. They will donate $1 for every code from a specially marked package of Freschetta pizza that is entered on their site (www.ProudToSupportPink.com). You can enter codes until October 31st (sorry for the late notice...I just got the package being that we moved recently).
As if the donation for breast cancer research is not enough, they are also giving away 50 pink iPod shuffles per week. On top of that giveaway, Freschetta will also send 50 iPod shuffles per week to 4 cancer centers around the US for patients to use during their treatments.
The Proud to Support Pink website has a place you can make a donation to this very important cause. There is also survivor stories, a place for people to share their journey through the diagnosis of breast cancer, to the treatment, to the CURE!! It is also a place family members can post their experiences. Breast cancer resources for further information is also available at this site. Everyone should check it out!

My family has been touched by breast cancer. My grandmother (my mom's mother) felt as if her breast was pulling or was heavier than normal. She went to be checked and was diagnosed with breast cancer. She was given the options and opted for a surgery. She is more than 10 years cancer free!

October is breast cancer awareness month! Check out the www.ProudToSupportPink.com website for information about breast cancer, for support and encouragement through other's journeys, to make a donation, to enter to win an iPod....there is also a coupon for Freschetta pizza. While we are trying to raise awareness for breast cancer and seeing that I work in health care, I must also plug in here that make sure you are performing monthly self breast exams. Early detection is the key!

If you plan on having a pizza anytime soon (maybe a good meal before trick-or-treating), have a pizza for the cause....be sure to enter your code on the site!

Now for the giveaway...In order to promote this program, Freschetta is providing a kit for me to give to one of my readers.
The kit will contain a coupon for a Freschetta pizza and 2 pairs of pink earphones.

In order to enter, leave a comment on this post. Since it is October, leave a comment about your favorite things about October.
The winner will be chosen at random on October 29.

Disclaimer: Freschetta has contacted me about this program and giveaway. They have provided me with a kit identical to the giveaway, but the views expressed here are my own.
