October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, an annual campaign to raise awareness about the impact of breast cancer primarily in women and now in men.

Every October, people all over the world show their support for everyone affected by breast cancer. Sports and Athletics across the nation have taken the forefront in showing support and bringing awareness throughout October. Athletes, coaches and organizations on all levels, incorporate pink accessories or wear pink uniforms to support the prevention, early detection, and treatment of breast cancer.
