At my school we're having a pink day (were you get to wear an item of pink clothing), selling lollipops, disney pens and cakes, having a raffle and people are going round with donation tins for collection money. What about you?

Ribbon

I got this ribbon from the Cancer Reasearch (http://www.cancerresearchuk.org/breastcancer/)site and edited it. Feel free to put it in your sigs/avarters etc
