Introducing Our Breast Cancer Awareness Shirts for 2014

Announcing Our Breast Cancer Awareness Shirts for 2014
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and we'd like to continue our annual tradition in creating shirts to help spread awareness and donate to the proceeds.

For every shirt we sell, we will then donate the proceeds to the Susan G. Komen Foundation.  This does not stop at the end of the month either.  These shirts will remain in our store and whatever shirts we sell, we will still continue to donate.

Last year we sold a total or 78 shirts, this year our goal is 150.

If you do not wish to buy a shirt but still wish to donate, you can do so at

All of our shirts can be purchased through
