Tat2X® Supports The Breast Cancer Research Foundation

Tat2X® believes in giving back and our success is a direct reflection of the people we serve. Each month a different charity is promoted and October has been dedicated to the Breast Research Foundation.

Long Beach, CA (I-Newswire) October 22, 2012 - Based on the American Cancer Society’s research, one out of every eight women in America will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. Almost 40,000 women die from breast cancer each year and the Breast Cancer Research Foundation is working hard to find a cure through aggressive research as well as early detection techniques. The Breast Cancer Research Foundation is one of the most fiscally responsible charities in America with 91 cents out of every dollar spent dedicated to clinical studies and awareness campaigns. The death rate from breast cancer has been declining since 1990 thanks to efforts by organizations like the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. Their researchers are dedicated to finding a cure within our lifetime. Researcher Titia de Lange states, “We now have the tools to get a full inventory of every single gene in the cancer cell. We must use our tools for understanding genes to make sense of the cancer cell and intervene in ways that help real people in their struggles with disease.”

Tat2X® believes in giving back and our success is a direct reflection of the people we serve. Each month a different charity is promoted and October has been dedicated to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation since it is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of every one of our pink sleeves during the month of October will be donated directly to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. According to founder Mo Nelson, “Corporate social responsibility is a not a choice but a duty that we have as a successful business in America.” Mo continues, “That’s why we manufacture our tattoo cover up sleeves in the US and that’s why we try to promote a different charity each month at Tat2X®.” Mo founded Tat2X® in 2008 and now ships Ink Armor™ tattoo cover up sleeves internationally to thousands of customers worldwide.

The Breast Cancer Research Foundation has been in operation as a non-profit for over sixteen years and supports almost 200 scientists in their research efforts at top universities and foundations around the globe. Breast cancer is the second leading cause of death in women, exceeded only by lung cancer.
