Jumpin-Beans

As some know... and some may just be learning... My mom was diagnosed with breast cancer last year. While it was 100 % something we did not want to hear, we were thankful / blessed that it was caught when it was.  She was able to start chemo (and she rang that bell back in October!)  After a very short break, she started radiation (and again... SHE RANG THAT BELL back in January.) All of her family and friends are so very proud of her!!!!  So - she rang the BELL and now we walk to tell the TALE. She is a CANCER SURVIVOR!!!!!!!!  If you would like to join our team or donate... Here is the link: http://ppmh.convio.net/goto/ DebbiesDiamondsTeam Thanks in advance!  

I was not asked to post this.  This is not a sponsored post.. I just really love the WWE and wanted to share. Maybe bring an old fan back, make a few new fans, or at least share all they are doing with current fans. If you have been around Jumpin Beans for some time.. You know that we love the WWE. I love that they are a name that has been around for a good amount of time...  I love that they support the military... I love that they support Make a Wish Foundation... I love that they support Breast Cancer Awareness.  As you can see, WWE is not only about wrestling...  They are about community. That being said, I wanted to share with you a few things that I have been made aware of, thanks to emails... Make A Wish: WWE Superstar John Cena celebrated World Wish Day with three wish kids that attended  Monday Night Raw  live in Columbus, OH.  Logan Parks of Stanton, Kentucky, Jacob Lawson of Hutchinson, Minnesota and Nicholas Santillo of Runnemede, ...

Just another roundup of emails I have received  just wanted to share.   PINK PUMPKINS for BREAST CANCER Did you know that breast cancer is one of the leading causes of death among women?  Well, I want to introduce you to a beautiful new product that is going to motivate and inspire your readers while helping raise funds for breast cancer research.  I work for a new foundation called The Pink Pumpkin Patch and we are promoting a natural pink-skinned pumpkin, which is debuting all across the country this October just in time for National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  These pink pumpkins are part of the Pink Pumpkin Patch Foundation’s national campaign, “Pink Pumpkins on Your Porch – Let’s Unite Against Breast Cancer.” The campaign is designed to encourage everyone to join the fight against breast cancer by placing pink pumpkins on their porches and in their homes as part of their annual Halloween and fall décor.

With October being Breast Cancer Awareness month, we have all seen pink everywhere. It is sad to think that most people tend to forget about it when it isn't October. That is a reason I love companies that go pink... Because when you purchase that item, it sticks out in people's mind just a bit longer. With Master Lock, you can proudly support year round! It isn't like you only need a lock in October, right?! We were able to review the PINK SPEED DIAL. It is a combination lock that is the coolest thing. Instead of having numbers or letters on it, you just remember your movement, that is the code!!! How cool is that?! You just remember, up, up, left or whatever you want your combination to be! Product Features: Show your support and help find a cure for breast cancer World’s first combination lock that opens on up/down/left/right directional movements Patented technology is faster, easier and more secure than a standard combination lock Maximum security with anti-shim techno...

10 Retailers that Support Breast Cancer Awareness By Andrea Woroch If every month of the year was assigned a color, then pink would surely belong to October. Breast Cancer Awareness Month turns even the manliest organizations (think National Football League) into pink-laden landscapes, all in support of breast cancr research. One way consumers can show their support is by shopping for the cause. Many popular retailers and brands are currently offering products with some or all of the proceeds going to Susan G. Komen for the Cure. For a more comprehensive list of participants, consult the organization's Corporate Partners page. 1. Yoplait As the National Series Presenting Sponsor of the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure, Yoplait's signature pink lids are one of the most visible reminders of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
