The Pink Ribbon Text Campaign
txt4cure.org launches "The Pink Ribbon Campaign" subscription in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
The site features a "Share Your Story" section which allows visitors to submit their cancer stories in text messaging format. Txt4aCure.org visitors can also contribute their favorite quotes and statements that have helped them during their cancer struggle.
The charity will then distribute these stories and quotes to subscribers' mobile phones to raise money for cancer research and heighten cancer awareness. Txt4aCure even has a special subscription just for women that will raise money for breast cancer research. [More in press release]

-- Pink Cell Phone To Fight Cancer
