Clicking the pink ribbon at [http://health.yahoo.com/](http://health.yahoo.com/) donates a buck to the Susan G. Kolman foudation (this seems legit…at least according to yahoo)

Thanks. Started to put it on myself but it only goes to $5,000 and I thought that many people had already seen it since October 15. Good job.

I did it. I’m also e-mailing some friends with the site so they can do it too. Great job **beagledave**!

Thank you **Beagledave**

I’ve lost two very good friends to that horrible disease.

'nuff said.

Another site where you can do the same thing is

[http://www.nfl.com/](http://www.nfl.com/)

At the bottom is the button for NFL FOR HER, click that. [nfl.com](http://nfl.com) will give $5 for each person visiting this site.

On my mother side both my grandmother and grandfather died from breastcancer and my mother has had a radical mastectomy.

At [http://www.nfl.com/nflforher](http://www.nfl.com/nflforher) they say “Help the NFL fight breast cancer. Log on to [NFL.com](http://NFL.com) on Tuesday, Oct. 24, the NFL’s Breast Cancer Awareness Day, and visit NFL For Her. The NFL will donate $5 for every page view, up to $50,000, to the Komen Foundation.”

Well this is weird…I viewed the page with IE 5 (on a Mac) and the bit about the donation is NOT visible…I view it with Netscape Navigator and it IS…sorry about that… 😕

Beagledave, I posted this thread [NFL and Breast Cancer](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=43436) at the same time this morning that you posted this one. It has all the info in it and has been here all day.

I just hope lots of people take the few seconds to make sure that all the money that is available is donated. The Yahoo site raised the donation level to $10,000.

Jim
