Think Pink Cincinnati It's Breast Cancer Awareness Month

It's that time of year when businesses dip their brushes into the pink paintbox, or crayon box, or however they do it. October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and Cincy really gets into it.

You'll see pink everywhere. University Medical Center is sporting a big pink ribbon. Kroger usually decks out their Downtown headquarters in pink ribbons and banners. They even illuminate the building with pink lights each night. It's pretty cool.

There are pink races, pink events, and even pink-trimmed food at the grocery store. When you buy certain pink adorned products the grocer and manufacturer chip in a donation. The donations are small, but they add up. 

Look for other pink ways to contribute to Breast Cancer Awareness. You can even make a direct donation at komencincinnati.org.
