As
you probably know, October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. There are exciting breakthroughs
happening all the time that make us hopeful that there will be better treatment
options available and eventually a cure for breast cancer. However, despite the
progress being made, there are many women whom once diagnosed cannot afford the
expensive treatments. That is why this year my mom and I have joined with To Celebrate Life Breast Cancer Foundation to help raise money for nonprofit
organizations that provide services and support to people living with breast
cancer.
On
Saturday, Sept. 29th we walked in a fashion show for To Celebrate
Life’s main fundraising event called “Stepping out to Celebrate Life.” It
was an amazing and inspirational experience to walk the runway with 35 women that are all breast cancer survivors, to hear
their stories, to get to know them and to see the transformation that can occur
when women learn how to project confidence and beauty. Each year, this event raises money to help
organizations that provide a variety of individualized and necessary services for
people living with breast cancer.
In
addition, TDM studios across the world will be offering a special donation
class and selling limited edition TDM pink grip socks and pink ribbon t-shirts, the proceeds of which will go to two great organizations, To Celebrate Life and Bright Pink. You can find times and dates of
these classes at your local TDM Studio. Come join us for a great
class and help us support important Breast Cancer services!
