All of us, at one point in our lives, will be either directly or indirectly affected by cancer. The American Cancer Society does a fantastic job on educating the public and raising money for cancer research. Hopefully, a cure or better treatment options will be available within our lifetimes, but they need our help. Hence, the proceeds of the sales for each of these keychains will be donated to my school's Relay for Life team to help in the search for a cure.

These keychains are perfect for busy moms, teachers and survivors or fighters alike. They make excellent "just because" gifts, stocking stuffers and teacher appreciation gifts.

Miscarriage, SIDS and Infant Loss Awareness Key Chains

Barbie from Barb's Blurbs commented on yesterday's post that I should look into ribbon for miscarriages, stillbirth, SIDS and infant death awareness. I took her up on her advice and did some research to find that their ribbon is a pale pink and blue mix. I couldn't find pre-made ribbon, so I made this one myself. You can't see it so well here, but it's satin ribbon, although I'll be looking for grosgrain soon, and stitched in alternating colors. The blue is stitched with pink and the pink is stitched with blue.
It's going on the Keychains for a Cause page tonight. They'll only be available on the 1.25 cotton webbing, but in both wristlet and key fob sizes. I hope they're able to provide someone, somewhere, with comfort.

Do you have any other suggestions of awareness ribbons/patterns you'd like to see offered?
