October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and Mimi's Cafe
has partnered with the National Breast Cancer Foundation to raise money
for breast cancer awareness through education, early detection, and support services.
I had the opportunity to attend a kick off event at the Mimi's Cafe near my home
and meet Janelle Hail - CEO for NBCF -
and Mark Mears - President and Chief Concept Officer of Mimi's Cafe.
I donated and dedicated one of my leaves for the Giving Tree to my friend Flossie.
She is currently undergoing treatment for breast cancer,
and so the efforts of Mimi's Cafe and the NBCF mean a lot to me.
For a $1 donation you receive a leaf to inscribe and hang on the Giving Tree.
Donate $5 and you'll also receive a limited edition leaf lapel pin.
As a thank you for your donation, you'll receive up to $30 in Mimi's savings.
You can also make donations online to the virtual Giving Tree.
In addition to making a donation,
Mimi's Cafe has created a selection of Pink Drinks.
For every drink you purchase, a portion of the proceeds goes
directly to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.
I had a chance to try the Sparkling Passion Fruit and it was delicious!
So, stop by your local Mimi's Cafe, make a donation,
have a YUMMY drink, and get some rad coupons.
PLUS!
Come to Mimi's on Friday, October 19 and receive a FREE cup of soup with any purchase when you donate to National Breast Cancer Foundation for the Mimi's Power of Pink Campaign.
And I'm giving away two $25 gift certificates to Mimi's Cafe!

Breast cancer has affected my life in many ways, but the biggest way is simply learning to enjoy every day!
