Blogtoberfest Day 24 - Think Pink

Welcome dear readers to Blogtoberfest Day 24. Today I wish to share a rather sobering topic for a Monday morning....October 24th 2011 is Pink Ribbon Day in Australia. What is Pink Ribbon Day I hear you ask ?

"The Cancer Council's Pink Ribbon Day aims to raise awareness about breast cancer as well as raise funds for prevention programs, support services and world-class breast research. This year alone around 12,700 Australian women will be diagnosed with breast cancer."

You can find out more about Pink Ribbon Day or make a donation at the Pink Ribbon Website :  http://www.pinkribbonday.com.au/

In keeping with the Think Pink theme for Pink Ribbon Day I thought I would share a couple of sweet girly Pink things from various DUST team members that I have found while browsing Etsy.
