Monticello, Minnesota – Local entrepreneur, is helping bring awareness to breast cancer and doing her part to raise funds for breast cancer in a unique online effort by work at home moms.
Jennifer Strumbel, owner of On River Street is temporarily putting business on hold to participate in an online event designed to bring awareness of breast cancer to work at home moms and women all across the country and the globe.
This month-long event is taking place on InternetBasedMoms.com, a community of work at home moms who network and share resources to build their online businesses. In October 2003, this community is banding together to bring awareness of breast cancer and raise funds for breast cancer charities.
The event includes breast cancer information, resources and stories of inspirational moms who have battled breast cancer. Fundraisers include an online chat-a-thon and 70% of selected sales going to breast cancer charities.
Strumbel is personally contributing to this event by offering a specially selected Pink Candle from the On River Street line of Jar Candles. $5.00 from each candle sold will be donated to Breast Cancer research in their efforts of “Burning Out Breast Cancer One Candle at a Time.”
Despite the growing awareness of breast cancer, there are still women who do not take advantage of early detection of breast cancer at all and others who do not get screening mammograms and clinical breast exams at regular intervals.
According to the organization, National Breast Cancer Awareness Month (NBCAM), “If all women age 40 and older took advantage of early detection methods – mammography plus clinical breast exam – breast cancer death rates would drop much further, up to 30 percent. The key to mammography screening is that it be done routinely – once is not enough.”
Says Strumbel, “Breast Cancer touched my life 10 years ago when my maternal grandmother was diagnosed with breast cancer and 3 years later when my mother was diagnosed. Since then, I have made every effort I can to educate and donate to the research for finding a cure. I’m proud to partner with InternetBasedMoms.com this year in that effort.”
