Tomorrow is National Wear Teal Day


September is National Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month and Friday, September 7th is Wear Teal Day. Join us and show your support for women with ovarian cancer by wearing teal (the awareness color for ovarian cancer) tomorrow Sep. 7th.

Ovarian cancer is the leading cause of death from gynecologic cancers in the US and is the Fifth leading cause of cancer among American women, according to the American Cancer Society. The ACS estimates 22,280 will be diagnosed with ovarian cancer in the United States in 2012 and about 15,000 will die from the disease. Raising awareness is the key to early diagnosis and proper treatments which can and will save lives!

We will be wearing our Peacock Cotton Scarves to show our support for all those who are fighting this terrible disease.
