Breast Cancer Awareness Month begins on October 1 -- still 19 days away -- and already pink products, which already have quite a public presence, are out in full force. I've seen pink socks, pink umbrellas, pink sports bottles, pink coolers, pink shirts, and my favorite -- pink M&M'S®. The M&M'S® brand proudly supports the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation and will donate 35 cents from each 14 ounce bag and 50 cents from each 21.3 ounce bag sold. A minimum of $250,000 will be donated to assist in eradicating breast cancer as a life-threatening disease. Funds will support the advancement of research, education, screening, and treatment. What a sweet deal.
Pink M&M'S® will be available on retailer shelves during September, October, and November.
