Butterfly shirt benefits women fighting breast cancer
March 17th, 2009, 4:10 pm · 10 Comments · posted by Shannon Buonsanti
Here’s a way of contributing your beauty allowance towards a worthwhile cause.
The Orange County affiliate of the Susan G. Komen for the Cure has created a limited edition t-shirt with a gorgeous butterfly design. The sales of this t-shirt will benefit women and families facing breast cancer, and will help create awareness for the upcoming Pink Tie Ball on June 6.
The butterflies on the t-shirt symbolize a survivor’s journey: renewal, transformation and resilience. Plus, it’s super chic! I’ve already purchased mine. (FYI - Ordering was quick and easy on their website.)
Proceeds from the Pink Tie Ball, which is open to the public, go towards local breast cancer awareness and education programs, as well as life-saving medical and diagnostic services. A percentage is also dedicated to groundbreaking breast cancer research.
To get more information on the Pink Tie Ball or purchase the shirt, go to ockomenmerchandise.com.

What a cool shirt and purpose. Love that! Thanks for sharing. Debbie
I agree, it’s a cool shirt. What a great cause. Thanks.
“Save the Ta-tas” is an alternative to these really cute shirts.
Breast Cancer has affected my life in certain ways and raising any kind of awareness on the subject is great.
I have two and love them… great fit, great feel, great cause!
These shirts are comfortable and stylish. I wear mine all the time and get tons of compliments.
I have to admit that I am not a huge fan of the pink ribbon, so this is something I would buy and actually wear. Thanks for posting it!
Great design. I love it! A fantastic shirt for all ages of women who support breast cancer awareness and Susan G. Komen for the Cure.
I got my shipment confirmation this morning. I’m so excited to get it. Plus, my money is going to good use, instead of the darn makeup counter.
Cute top and wonderful that you give back to the community. I do the same with Susan G. Komen and wish more did. Every little bit helps. Good Luck! Support the Breast Cancer fight! Signed: A business Mom from http://www.RepeatPossessions.com
