... there are times in which all cancer fundraising seems to be more "pink" and from our standpoint, not enough "blue".
-on May 15 is the 4th annual "drop your pants " fundraiser for Prostate Cancer Canada.

-it is an innovative approach hoping to break down the barriers and stigma of PCa.

Please note: - I am not associated with the event nor the fundraisers - just wanted to share ideas that might help you spread the word in your own fundraising or media events in your local town.

Great Idea, Bronson - thanks for sharing. Hope it raises not only a lot of money, but more importantly, lots more PC awareness. Don't mind the pink, just wish we would see more blue.

Bronson,

Thanks for the mention.

Prostate Cancer Canada is a friend of HW & GFMPH. We don't allow direct fundraising, but we can mention what they are doing. They are a very good resource.

That's funny. A few weeks ago I came up with a similar slogan idea, but thought it too risky, but maybe not.

"Prostate Cancer: Don't get caught with your pants up"

However, with the new screening confusion I'm not very energized to do any fundraiser or awareness that I normally do.

Thanks for the info.
