“Pink is my new obsession„ were singing Aerosmith: and pink is the theme of the initiatinve Pink 2008 promoted by Flickr. Here’s the description of the group:
October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and if you add your pink photos to this group you can help to raise up to €30,000 for local charities.
For each pink photo you add to www.flickr.com/groups/pink2008, Yahoo! for Good will donate €1, up to a maximum of €30,000. We will split the total equally between 5 charities in UK, Germany, France, Spain and Italy.
- In the UK Cancer Research UK will use this donation to fund breast cancer research.
- In Germany Deutsche Krebshilfe will use this donation to fund a breast cancer project.
- In France Association Le Cancer du sein, parlons en ! will use this donation to fund screening.
- In Spain FEFOC will use this donation to fund information about prevention and detection.
- In Italy LILT will use this donation to fund breast cancer research.
You can add 5 pink photos a day during October, so please think about making a month long commitment to sharing your pink photos!
It’s a very nice initiative: I’ve posted some photos in the group and some of them can be seen here:
