Did you know that breast cancer is the most common cancer among women in the U.S.?

In fact, 1 to 8 women in the United States will develop breast cancer in their lifetime—meaning everyone knows someone who has been impacted by breast cancer. The good news is that we can all help by raising awareness and funds for breast cancer research and patient care.

As the world’s leading breast cancer organization, Susan G. Komen funds life-saving research, treatment, education and community health programs—with the ultimate goal of finding cures for breast cancer. This Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Komen is launching its annual Live Pink program, giving you the chance to shop for items that support the breast cancer community. Check out some of their partners below and visit komen.org/live pink for even more services and products!

Avis Budget Group

Planning any road trips this year? As part of Avis’ partnership with Komen, you can save up to 25% on non-discounted rates with AWD #A349300, and 5% of your rental fee will be donated to the breast cancer organization. This offer is running all year long, but for the months of July, October, and December, you can save 35%, while 10% will be donated.

The same is true when you rent a car from Budget—just use the code BCD #R899700.

Wacoal

Wacoal, a premium bra brand, supports Komen in many ways.

From October 1-10, the brand will donate $2 to Komen for every regular-priced bra purchased online. For every person who purchases a regular-priced bra at a Fit for the Cure event, Wacoal will donate $5. The brand will also donate the same amount for everyone who completes the steps to digitally size themselves with mybraFit. Lastly, customers can choose to round up their purchase and make a donation to Komen on Wacoal’s website.
