For those who are unaware, today is Pink Ribbon Day.

The National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF) is the leading community-funded national organisation in Australia supporting and promoting research into the prevention and cure of breast cancer. Since the NBCF was established in 1994, over $55 million has been awarded to 230 research projects across every state and territory, to improve the health and wellbeing of those affected by breast cancer.

This year, breast cancer hit close to home for me as my mother was diagnosed and treated for breast cancer.

Putting a banner up on the blog is the least I can do to raise awareness of the issues.
