Purple Ribbon Pins To Honor Cancer Survivors

National Cancer Survivors Day is celebrated each year on the first Sunday in June.

This year marked the holiday's 23rd anniversary and although at the beginning it was celebrated only in the United States, nowadays, commemorative events are held in many other countries such as Canada and India.

For more information about National Cancer Survivor Day please visit http://www.ncsdf.org/

"Thanks to medical research and early detection, the number of cancer survivors has increased dramatically over the past decades. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, while there were 3 million survivors in 1971, the figure for 2007 was 11.7 million of people who are living with this disease." - Ezine Articles -

Awareness ribbon pins have become very popular as a symbol of the fight against cancer and other diseases. Many organizations raise funds by selling them or giving them away in exchange for a donation.

"Jeans Day", Fun Idea To Raise Funds For BC Children's Hospital

BC Children's Hospital in Vancouver, BC Canada is celebrating its 21st Jeans Day™ on April 28.

"Jeans Day™ is a fun and easy event for people of all ages to participate in and show their support of BC’s kids. By purchasing a $5 button or $20 lapel pin, you get a chance to wear your jeans to work or school on April 28 and help the kids at BC Children's Hospital." - BC Children's Hospital Foundation -

The buttons and lapel pins can be purchased in several retailers locations around town such as Costco or Overwaitea Foods.

Since its first year, Jeans Day has raised over 11 million dollars in support of the BC Children’s Hospital Excellence in Child Health Fund.

To support the cause, visit any of the sponsors locations before April 28 and buy a lapel pin or a button. And of course, don't forget to wear your jeans on the 28th!

Lapel pins are the perfect way to raise funds and create awareness for any cause. People wearing them will spread the word about your cause and more people will get involve.

We love Jeans Day™ event! It's a fun way to create excitement around this cause which at the end will generate more donations! For sure, everybody loves jeans!

If you want to raise funds for your cause, don't forget to include custom lapel pins in your project and why not maybe you can come up with a cool idea like BC Children's Hospital did to breed the enthusiasm.

Kansa City Chiefs - Using Lapel Pins to Fundraise for the Military

Veterans Day is around the corner and KC Chiefs, a professional football team based in Kansas City, just announced today that they will honor veterans and active members of the military with an in-stadium recognition this Sunday at the game vs. Buffalo. And this is only the beginning, they will lead events and activities until Veterans Day on November 11.

The Chiefs are joining the VFW Foundation (Veterans of Foreign Wars), on the Return the Favor campaign, an awareness and fundraising campaign to honor, celebrate and support active-duty and retired military and their families.

In order to fundraise for the cause, the Chiefs Team Store will be selling Return the Favor lapel pins until the end of November. Fans and people interested can donate also by text or visiting www.returnthefavor.org

For more information please visit KCChief

Once again, lapel pins are used to help a fundraising effort, for sure, donors have a better incentive to give when they receive a beautiful custom pin in exchange and besides that, they can proudly wear them and encourage other people to collaborate.

We applaud KC Chiefs initiative and hopefully they're setting an example for other sport teams or organizations to join the cause as well. Go Chiefs!
