October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and Topcor is proud to support the efforts of The Breast Cancer Research Foundation this month and year round. At BCRF, more than 90 cents of every dollar is directed to breast cancer research and awareness programs. For more than 9 years, BCRF has received 4 stars from Charity Navigator. Only 1% of 5,500 charities achieve this distinction. For every pink “Clipa for a Cure” sold, we donate 10% to The BCRF. In just 2 years, thousands of dollars have been donated from this product with a purpose. In 2011-2012, BCRF grants will support more than 175 dedicated researchers at major medical institutions. A woman is diagnosed every 2.5 minutes in the U.S.; if you or someone you know has breast cancer, you can find out more about the search for a cure at www.bcrfcure.org
