The pink ribbon has become the symbol for breast cancer research and awareness. A number of gift products can be bought that feature the pink ribbon. Although many online and physical stores sell this type of product, in order to truly make a difference, support the stores that donate proceeds of their sales to breast cancer research.
Pink Ribbon Flip-Flops
Pink Ribbon Flip-Flops have pink, polka-dotted straps with a rhinestone pink ribbon button connecting the straps. They were designed by Lindsay Phillips, the famous shoe designer whose footwear concepts evolved from a high school art project. The flip-flops are available in sizes 6 to 10, and 25 percent of the purchase price goes toward breast cancer research. Where to get them:
