Uncommonly Cute’s “C is for Cure” tee… the infant onesie and toddler tee designed specially to be worn by youngsters in support of Breast Cancer. October is Breast Cancer awareness month so we will do our best to help educate about some of the ways to suport a great cause. They have raised over $2000 so far (350 tees sold and counting). With your help, we hope to reach our goal of a $5000 donation to go directly to the BCRF.
Through this nationwide effort, Allison Friedland the company’s founder is proud to give back to this worthy cause that has touched both family and friends that are dear to her. Available at www.uncommonlycute.com for $22-$24 each, Uncommonly Cute will donate 25% from the sale of this product to this outstanding organization to help find a cure.
This is the ONLY product available for little ones to show their support while strolling through the awareness walks… Now babies everywhere can give strength to mom, grandma, aunts, family and friends… after all “laughter is the best medicine”.
