Statistics show that breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in American for women.

Pink ribbon campaigns to raise awareness are everywhere. Companies large and small have taken their normal brand identitiy colors and turned them pink to highlight their commitment to raising awareness.

One of the most notable and aparent showing of this is with the NFL  and its teams with pro-football players donning gear like athletic cleats and gloves with flashes of pink.  

Nascar  driver Bobby Labonte drove in the NASCAR Banking 500, to raise breast cancer awareness with his pink car sponsored by Ask.com.
