Marks and Spencer Supports ICanServe

 This October, Breast Cancer Awareness is in Fashion

icanservems11.jpg 

Worldwide, Breast Cancer is the leading cause of death for women ages 35 to 54. In Asia, the Philippines has the highest incidence rate. One out of every nine Filipinos will develop the disease in their lifetime.

Amidst the harsh reality of Breast Cancer, I Can Serve in partnership with Marks and Spencer is helping create a greater awareness of this life-threatening disease. Through I Can Serve’s early breast cancer detection campaign and programs, the foundation is helping women become better informed and proactive about Breast Cancer through a four-part process: Education, Breast Self-Examination, Clinical Breast Examination and Mammography.

To help spread the word about Breast Cancer, Marks and Spencer, a staunch supporter of the cause, having conducted breast cancer awareness initiatives worldwide, continues to help arm women with the knowledge they need to battle this disease.

In celebration of October, which is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Marks and Spencer is arming customers with a free tote for every minimum single receipt purchase of P2,500 on bras. The tote bares the pink ribbon, the global icon for Breast Cancer. Carry this piece and make a fashion statement against Breast Cancer. Promo will be available from October 1 to 31, 2010.

I Can Serve, a non-stock, non-profit foundation based in Manila, Philippines, was founded in 1999 to empower women with Breast Cancer and provide cancer-related information, allowing women to have a voice in their own health care.

Surprise Party for David

By | Celebrations | No Comments

It was so sweet of Honey and the kids to throw a surprise party for David’s 40th birthday! I talked to David and he said he sort of knew and has been waiting everytime he was out that it might be the surprise already 🙂 Anyway, it is the thought and all the love that went into it that counts.  Thanks also to Glenn and Yvonne who I noticed were all over the place helping Honey out.

Thank you to Mat and Roman – the accomplices for planning the decoy!  Though David knew already – you probably knew that he knew but you all acted like he didn’t! or he fooled you too! 🙂
