Did you know that breast cancer is the most prevalent cancer in the world today? And it is the most common cause of cancer-related deaths among women. The good news is that, due to early detection and more effective treatments, mortality rates are declining.
In support of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Marie Claire has wrapped our website in pink – and our sister sites Cosmopolitan, Country Living, Good Housekeeping, Harper's Bazaar, House Beautiful, Quick and Simple, Redbook, and Seventeen are supporting the cause as well.
If just one woman, anywhere in the world, sees the Marie Claire website in pink and is inspired to get a mammogram or seek information about breast cancer, then our objective has been accomplished.
Click on the pink ribbon to visit the Breast Cancer Research Foundation's website, where you can learn more about the Foundation; see their research in action; support their partners and programs; or participate in their events. The website also offers breast cancer resources including an extensive Breast Health Library.
