Brides Against Breast Cancer

Don't know what to do with your wedding dress after the big day? If you don't have grand plans for it, give it another chance to walk down the aisle and donate it to Brides Against Breast Cancer.





Your dress will be refurbished and sold at one of their "Nationwide Tour of Gowns" sales held across the country. All donation proceeds go to The Making Memories Foundation that grants final wishes to men and women suffering from terminal breast cancer.





It is estimated that this year alone over 200,000 women and nearly 1,200 men will be diagnosed with breast cancer. Sadly, breast cancer will take the lives of almost 40,000 people this year in the United States and over 300,000 worldwide. In the United States one person will be diagnosed with breast cancer every 2½ minutes, and one person will die of breast cancer every 12 minutes. Many know that this disease is the second highest killer of women in the United States, but a little known fact is that breast cancer is the number one killer of women between the ages of 15 and 54. - message from Making Memories
