October is national Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Millions of people are affected by breast cancer, and during this month, millions of people world-wide take the time to find their own unique way to support this important cause. Please join in the fight against breast cancer! Whether it is supporting someone in need, volunteering or contributing to a charity, every little bit helps the fight for a cure. There are some great things happening in Connecticut this month so check out the information and links below and feel free to pass on to your friends!
