I’ve been running The Rose Run, a non-profit to raise money for breast cancer research and cancer patient care for 9 years, and there hasn’t been a year I haven’t used Oriental Trading for something. The difference this year, is that I’m an ambassador working with Oriental Trading now, and OT donated what we needed to our kids’ goody bags for the 5k run/walk this past July!
I’ve been able to find all things breast cancer for every single event, including stickers, table cloths, toys, necklaces, candy, pom poms, bracelets, signs and so much more. What these items do for me, in my personal experience, is help me remember.
I remember where I got it.
I remember someone I know who has cancer.
I think, for a moment, that I’ve made a difference somehow.
