Hotel Covered in Bras to Support Breast Cancer Research

I like Ben Folds on Facebook, and they recently participated in this thing called Cellphone snap of the day, where someone basically jacks an artists cellphone, and post the coolest picture on it.

And Ben Folds picture was of a bunch of bras hanging off a hotel.

That's pretty much awesome.

Ben is quoted to have said, "That was a hotel somewhere that was promoting a charity for breast cancer. Everyone in town had donated bras and the patchwork covered two faces of the hotel!”

I wonder how tall it was, because even a short hotel covered in bras? Even just two sides? That's a lot of bras.
Now I want to go cover my apartment building with bras.

BRB, stealing bras from girls on campus.

Get Fitted, Raise Money For Breast Cancer Research!

For the next few weeks, JCPenney's across the nation are doing a bra fit event to benefit the Y Me, a nation breast cancer organization.



For every fit done at a JCPenney store, the company will donate a dollar to this awesome organization.
I think they also give you a $5 off coupon on your next bra, panty or shapewear purchase.

You an read more about Y Me here, but hurry up and go get fitted!
Even if you know your size, go!

WIN WIN WIN

Put on Your Pink Bra Campaign

You might be asking, is this chick part of the campaign?
The answer, no.
But, I am well aware that sex sells, so she's gonna do me the favor of being eye candy for this post.

Anyhow, on to the news. This Thursday, at 6 pm in Florida, people will gather for the "Making Strides" noncompetitive 5K which will raise funds and awareness for breast cancer.

The "Put on Your Pink Bra" is more specific to the fashion show that will also happen at the event, with survivors and supporters wearing pink bras, decorated for the event.

I'm hoping for pictures, and at least a few models who look like our lovely lady up top.

Off to go try and find a pink bra, because I actually don't think I own one.

Barbells For Boobs, Crossfit Fights Cancer


Picture from bigmike-smokeout.blogspot.com

So who of my lovely readers has heard of Crossfit?

For those of you who haven't, you can easily define it as a super intensive, mildly insane workout.

Anyways, a Tuscon gym hosted the Barbells for boobs fundraiser, to raise money for women in southern Arizona who can't afford to get a mammogram.

""There's a lot of women out there who can't afford a mammogram; maybe their doctor is saying you don't need to get one. It's every woman's choice. Nobody should have to live with the anxiety of 'oh gosh is that something'," breast cancer survivor Molly Davis said."


"Around 100 people will be doing what's called a "Helen Meets Grace" workout.  That's a 400-yard run around the gym, dozens of kettle bell swings, pull ups, and as many clean an jerks as they can manage."

Uhm, no thank you, I will just give you some money instead. Also, what is a clean an jerk? Shouldn't it be a jerk an clean? (HAHAHA, I crack myself up.)


Last year, in crossfit gyms across the country, they raised over $300,000 during the Barbells for Boobs fundraiser. If they used the girl up top as a spokesperson, I bet they would make a lot more. Just saying.

Off to go hit the weights!
