Just this month, Rethink Breast Cancer launched in Ottawa with a Live Laugh Learn event at Lululemon in Westboro. They've had these events in other cities, as well as informative events with specific topics and themes tailored to young women at various stages in their Breast Cancer journey. The Live Laugh Learn event was a social evening for pampering and connecting with other young women who can relate. Their were refreshments and snacks, cupcakes, makeovers by Physicians Formula, hair and wig specialists and of course, the photography to capture these fun new looks. I swear it was 10% makeover and 90% confidence, strength and attitude that made these women look amazing!
Rethink Breast Cancer not only puts on wonderful events like these, offers peer support and so much more, but it is also a sponsor for the Nanny Angel Network. The Nanny Angel Network provides relief childcare to mothers with breast cancer, all by volunteers in professional childcare.
Also, Rethink Breast Cancer has come up with some very clever ads to help spread awareness, and ahem, encourage and remind women to self-check. Have a look at what this organization does, and absolutely have a look at their video below, for a good chuckle.
Great post, Natalie! Thanks so much for contributing your skills to this event - the pictures are so beautiful!
