"Little Pink Houses" Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Over 41,000 American women lose their lives to breast cancer each year. Throughout the month, RentLizard.com will be running its "Little Pink Houses" campaign in an effort to help educate visitors about various aspects of breast cancer, and help raise monies to combat this deadly disease.

We believe we have chosen an outstanding breast cancer research fund to support as part of our fundraising campaign - the Stefanie Spielman Fund for Breast Cancer Research. The fund supports breast cancer research at The Ohio State University's comprehensive Cancer Center - Arthur G. James Cancer Hospital and Richard J. Solove Research Institute. This hospital was recently recognized as one of the top hospitals in the nation by U.S. News.

We'd also like to ask you to take a few minutes to learn more about how the two women and their respective families (pictured at the right) have been personally affected by breast cancer. Click on their photos to read their stories.

Select from the various menu options below to learn more about the contests we'll have running as part of our campaign, and how you can help us raise monies to fight breast cancer.

The RentLizard.com Team thanks you for your support!

Little Pink Houses…

Who doesn't remember the words from the song made popular by John Cougar Mellencamp back in the mid 80's? We spent quite a bit of time coming up with the name for our breast cancer awareness campaign, before ultimately settling on "Little Pink Houses". Seeing as one of our company’s primary service offerings is rental listings, we obviously wanted a name that had some sort of tie-in. More importantly, we wanted to effectively bring attention to the cause that we're supporting and we do that with the word "pink".

But there is a lot more to the reason we chose the name "Little Pink Houses" that is likely not evident to you. If asked to finish the line "little pink houses", I'll bet you would know to say "for you and me."

Little Pink Houses for you and me… Every year, breast cancer claims the lives of over 41,000 American women. According to the National Cancer Institute, one out of every eight U.S. women born now will be diagnosed with breast cancer at some point in their lives. Look around you. Chances are very high that you personally know someone that has been afflicted with breast cancer. It could be a neighbor, a co-worker, or even a mother or daughter of yours. Maybe even yourself. Many of the women that have experienced breast cancer likely form the "you" or the "me" in their own little pink houses.

In an effort to bring awareness and assistance in combating breast cancer, RentLizard.com is honored to provide our website as a vehicle in educating you about breast cancer and its affects, and additionally provide you a way to help us donate monies toward fighting this deadly disease. Stop by our site throughout the month of October. Check out our blog "The Lizard Eye". Become friends with us on Facebook. And while you're at it, why not follow us on Twitter. We'll be using all of these outlets to help educate you about breast cancer and some of the preventive measures you can take. We'll also share stories from those that have personally been affected by breast cancer. Two of those women are represented in our Little Pink Houses campaign logo. Click on their photos to go to their blogs and learn more about how they’ve personally been affected by breast cancer.

We believe we've chosen an outstanding breast cancer awareness fund to support. It's the Stefanie Spielman Breast Cancer Awareness Fund. Monies going into this fund are channeled into breast cancer research at The Ohio State University's Comprehensive Cancer Center – The James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute, named one of America's top hospitals (2009-2010) by U.S. News. If you're unfamiliar with Stefanie Spielman and her personal story with breast cancer, please click here to learn more.

As one of the co-founder of our site, I want to express my sincere thanks for any support you can provide to the fund we've chosen. I hope you take the time over the course of October to educate yourself about breast cancer and the preventive measures you can take to protect yourself or other loved ones from this disease.

Help us spread the word won't you please?
