Support a Cause and Buy Some Checks

By Alan Plastin


Whether you do it for business reasons or for you own personal sense of style, it is important to express yourself. We actually express ourselves everyday. Sometimes, we aren't even aware of it. Even something as small, and mostly unnoticed to us, as our personal bank checks can give others a sense of who we are.

Your personal inclinations and individuality can help you determine the kind of personalized checks that you want to carry. There is no lack of themes to choose from. There is pretty much something for everyone, from spiritual themes to animals. However, there are some check themes that are more than just a pleasant image. For example, if you order Breast Cancer checks, most companies actually donate money to various breast cancer foundations.

Apart from skin cancer, breast cancer is the most common form of cancer amongst American women. As a matter of fact, 12% of American women will develop breast cancer at some point in their lifetime. That is 1 in 8 women. Someone you know has probably been diagnosed with breast cancer.

After lung cancer, breast cancer is the second leading cause of women's cancer related deaths. Hope prevails, nonetheless. Breast cancer deaths have decreased steadily since 1990 and it is possible that early detection due to breast cancer awareness has helped lead to this decline.

Progress has been more abundant in the fight against breast cancer than in any other cancer. For one reason, there are many foundations and organizations that are out there helping to educate women on screenings and the early detection process. There are 2.5 million breast cancer survivors in the United States today.

If you choose to get personalized bank checks that feature breast cancer awareness, you should be aware that proceeds from the purchase can go to the treatment, education, and research aimed at finding a cure. The Susan G. Komen Foundation is one of the popular foundations that 10% of the breast cancer awareness checks goes to.

There are several different breast cancer awareness designs that you can choose from when ordering your checks. Everything from angel-themed checks to pretty retro-themed checks are available for purchase.

The pink ribbon checks are the most popular, however. Although simple in design, the pink ribbon is the globally recognized sign of breast cancer awareness.

If you want to customize your checks even more, some companies will let you create a personalized message over your signature line.

Remember that if you want to purchase Breast Cancer Awareness checks, it can save you money if you order them online. Ordering them online can actually save you 50% of the cost that your bank will probably charge you. It usually takes about 2 or 3 days for the checks to get to you once you've ordered them, so it might even save you time, as well.
