Submit Your Breast Cancer Story

For the past eight years, we have supported breast cancer awareness. In 1999, we created a 9 oz., pink, plumeria scented candle called “Hope for a Cure.” It was developed to support the fight against breast cancer when we learned that the mother of one of our employees was suffering with the disease.

The candle is sold in several different retail locations throughout the United States. A portion of the proceeds go toward breast cancer research. Every year since 2001 we have donated over 1,500 these candles to local hospitals in Utah for women who receive a mammogram in October.

This year, we are highlighting one woman on our website for one year, and helping them emotionally and financially. From June 1 to August 31, we will be accepting stories from women in the United States. We will help in areas such as day care, housekeeping, medical bills, etc. Please submit your story or the story of someone close to you on our website at www.foreverybody.com. We will announce our selection at the end of September.
