  • (1888PressRelease) October 04, 2012 - Dallas, TX - At this time there are about 2.6 million breast cancer survivors in the United States. Breast cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in women, exceeded only by lung cancer.

    October is national breast cancer awareness month and PointHR is joining the fight against this deadly cancer.

    PointHR is supporting the cause by donating $25 for each new customer sign up or Audit performed in the month of October to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation (http://www.bcrfcure.org). The BCRF directs 91 cents of every dollar they spend to breast cancer research and awareness programs. BCRF is the only cancer organization rated an "A"+ by CharityWatch.

    "In addition to our donations, we have also added pink ribbons to our website to help spread the word about Breast Cancer Awareness Month," stated Jim Castor, CEO of PointHR. "Everyone should consider donating to one of the many non-profit breast cancer research foundations saving lives, or find another way to help support the fight against the disease."
