Still Time to Support Breast Cancer Awareness in Novi

Breast Cancer Awareness Month ends Wednesday, along with several charity drives for breast cancer research at Novi area businesses:

Kroger Pink Ribbons

Customers at the Novi Kroger, located at the corner of Grand River Avenue and Beck Road, may purchase a pink ribbon for $1 or make a coin box donation to benefit breast cancer awareness and research. All proceeds will benefit the American Cancer Society and the Barbara Ann Karmanos Cancer Institute. 

Pink Pumpkins

The Pink Pumpkin Patch Foundation, a nonprofit organization that funds breast cancer research, is working with major retailers this month to raise money for breast cancer research through the sale of special pink-skinned pumpkins. Participating retailers include Kroger, Home Depot, and Walmart which all have locations in Novi.

Panera Pink Ribbon Bagels

Sold at Panera Bakery Cafe in Novi in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, the signature bagel has raised more than $1.25 million for breast cancer charities nationwide. In participating Panera bakery-cafes in the metro Detroit-area, funds will be donated to the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure.

Caribou Coffee 'Amy's Blend'

Customers at Caribou Coffee in Novi can support Breast Cancer Awareness by purchasing coffee and other items from the Amy's Blend collection. Sales in Novi will benefit the Assarian Cancer Center at Providence Park Hospital, which is located just across the street from Caribou.
