Here are a few products where all or part of the profits go to breast cancer research. Even if the person who is selling them on Ebay doesn't give his or her profits to breast cancer foundations or research centers, the ORIGINAL purchase price went to support such programs. Also, you can show your support by having these reminders on view as a sign of your continued commitment to breast cancer research.
    ONE CAVEAT - do your research. Make sure you are buying an authentic product, not a fake, and that the original proceeds were designated for the intended charity.
        Companies and products which support breast cancer programs and research include:
1. Barbie Collector Pink Ribbon Barbie Doll -  $2.50 of the original purchase price for these dolls go to support the Susan Komen foundation.
2. Cartier Red Love Bracelets - $100 for every bracelet sold donated to Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Retail value of these bracelets are $475 so if you find one on Ebay, it might be pricey. If not, it is a bargain (if authentic).
3. BedHead Pink ribbon PJs- Fifteen percent of ORIGINAL purchase price designated to National Breast Cancer Foundation
4. Annick Goutal's La Rose Candle
5. Evelyn Lauder's In Great Taste Cookbook (Rodale Press)
6. Kitchen Aid Cook for the Cure Measuring Cups and Spoons - 10% of proceeds go to Komen Center.

In addition, Ebay often has special celebrity and other charity auctions which you can find by going to the main page and checking out under special or charity auctions. If you have a friend or relative affected by breast cancer or are a survivor yourself, consider showing your support by buying products that spread the word - more research is needed and we need to find a way to keep more women from dying (and even some men get breast cancer).
