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.

Contest: Ultrasound

This is the seventh in a series of eight a la photo hunt contests that will be held here on Pink for October, in an attempt to get more people involved during the Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

The word for today is ULTRASOUND. We had a contest on mammogram, and now we have one on ultrasound. This clearly shows that my creative juices is running out :D

Now, go look for a picture, or take one if you can, that best describes an ultrasound, be it an ultrasound machine or a comic strip. But please make sure that your picture is work-safe and children-safe (we hope to keep this contest and website friendly, and not adult-oriented). Then write a description about it on your blog (please be original and not cut-and-paste from Wikipedia) and don’t forget to leave me a comment in the comments section! If you didn’t leave me a comment and your link, I wouldn’t know that you have participated, and most of all, your name will not be in the draw! I know I am repeating this, but be creative and think out of the box :D

The comments section for this post will be closed at 11:59 pm on Sunday, Oct 26th, and the next word will be announced at 12 am on Monday, Oct 27th (all times in GMT). Also, I suggest that you subscribe to the Pink for October feed to avoid missing any updates and contests! Please visit the contest page and the sponsors page for more information.

Contest: Mastectomy

This is the sixth in a series of eight a la photo hunt contests that will be held here on Pink for October, in an attempt to get more people involved during the Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

The word for today is MASTECTOMY. You see this coming too, no? :D

That’s right. Go look for a picture, or a comic strip, or draw one if you can, that best describes a mastectomy, obvious or otherwise. But please make sure that your picture is work-safe and children-safe (we hope to keep this contest and website friendly, and not adult-oriented). Then write a description (or a joke or an anecdote) about it on your blog (also, please do not copy-and-paste from Wikipedia or other online sources) and don’t forget to leave me a comment in the comments section! If you didn’t leave me a comment and your link, I wouldn’t know that you have participated, and most of all, your name will not be in the draw! Again, be creative and think out of the box :D
