Honoring Breast Cancer Awareness Month in a Pandemic

We are currently halfway through Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a month that has historically dominated the cause marketing scene, but this year is a bit different. With almost 8 million cases of coronavirus in the U.S., it’s important to remember the fact that 1 in 8 women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime. Which begs the question, how do you fundraise for a health crisis that isn’t COVID-19? This week, we will examine three companies that have gotten creative to ensure their Breast Cancer Awareness Month efforts shine through.
