Bulbrite Recognizes October as National Breast Cancer Awareness Month
MOONACHIE, NEW JERSEY--- To help support Breast Cancer patient education, research and care while recognizing October as "National Breast Cancer Awareness Month," Bulbrite has donated pink light bulbs to The Society of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center Thrift Shop.

"We are proud to participate in this Breast Cancer Awareness Program," explained Cathy Choi, President of Bulbrite. "We hope that we can make a difference, no matter how small, on the lives of people with breast cancer and their loved ones."
