Every employee spends a lot money for birthday treats, but you can spend this money a lot better. Search for companies who want to give you this money. What you earn goes to the pink ribbon foundation. An idea from Rosanne

Pink ribbon is one nasty organization!

Ok, I guess that's a point of view I hadn't heard about before. Found this on our beloved wikipedia about pinkwashing: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pink_ribbon#Criticism
I fully agree with Livia, but it might be even worse than you already thought: in the Netherlands Pink Ribbon has in totally donated 0 euros to sound scientific research. Then where does all the money go? 'Creating awareness', which means: more adverts to raise more money to...
@guido this is quite embarrasing. Good to know though: no help for pink ribbon anymore. Ofcourse Rosanne's idea is still valid, but the earnings should go to another charity.
Yes, it could go to a foundation/organisation which directly funds cancer research. In the netherlands i think that would be the KWF, no? Does anybody know of an organisation focussed on breast cancer?
