In honor of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, this Friday Faves round up is dedicated to the color pink. Pink is the color of femininity, yes, but it is also becoming a symbol of positivity and the power to overcome. This month and always, Artsy Forager encourages you to Think Pink– breast cancer is a threat to us all, but what an encouragement it is to see so many women ( and men ) winning their battle! I hope you’ll consider making a donation or linking to The Pink Fund on your blog of Facebook page, look for the link at the bottom of the post.

Don’t forget to check out The Pink Fund, a non-profit whose mission is to provide short-term financial aid to women and men who are in active treatment for and recovery from breast cancer. Getting well shouldn’t mean financial ruin.
