Breast Cancer has hit my family personally, first my mom, then her sister. Luckily, my mom is 13 years strong, and her sister is 3. So, helping spread the word about Companies That Give Back is important to me. If you have a breast cancer story, please leave a comment. We can all benefit from others’ strength and courage! And if you are a company that gives back, email me, and I will add you to this list.
In the fight against breast cancer, Organic Bouquet, the largest online provider of eco-friendly and organic floral gifts, has partnered with various organizations to support breast cancer research and awareness. The Breast Cancer Fund Yellow Roses bouquet will give back 15% instead of the normal 5% during October.

Breeze Comfort knows and cares about women’s needs, as their products promote positive breast health. From intimate basic bras to push-up sports bras, their products come with a patented Ventipad, which reduces moisture and provides maximum breathability, leading to a very comfortable experience.

Ventipad reduces the “sponge effect” through the perforated air channels, resulting in a more comfortable wearing experience.
For the month of October, Breeze Comfort, which makes innovative intimate bras and sports bras/tops, will donate 50% of proceeds from all pink styles to Cedars-Sinai Women’s Cancer Program when shoppers use the code “BCCARES.” This includes intimate bras and sports bras.
