Web sites will Go Pink during the month of October to bring attention to Breast Cancer Awareness Month, get people talking about breast cancer, and raise money for research. But to be clear, raising money isn’t the primary purpose of this web event. The hope is that you turn your site pink (in whatever way works for your site), educate yourself about the multiple issues related to Breast Cancer, then take that knowledge and tell someone else what you’ve learned.

Share your story and win a prize

Remember I said we have 4 extra prizes for our contests? I have squeezed whatever little creative juice that I have and miraculously come up with 4 additional contests, and this is one of them.

Here’s what you need to do to win a prize — Share your story.

There is a SHARE YOUR STORY segment where you can share a true story, or encourage your friend / family / neighbour / colleague to share theirs.

All you need to do is register for an account, log in, write your story and Matthew will spell-and-grammar-check your story before hitting the PUBLISH button. Then you wait.

On Oct 31st, I will randomly pick one story that is published this year, and the lucky winner will win one of these prizes. It’s that easy! :D

If you would like some ideas on how to begin writing your stories, these are some that have been shared this year:

My blind grandson found my cancer by Shelly Montgomery
My Nana by Dawn
My Story by FL Hopkins
How do you define a breast cancer survivor? by Dana P.

Good luck! :D
