Travel Tip: How You Can Fight Breast Cancer While Traveling

breast cancer ribbonsOctober marks Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and there are ways you can put your travel dollars toward a good cause.

Hard Rock Hotels have breast cancer awareness programs all month long.

If you stay in a room with pink sheets, 25 percent of the proceeds will go toward research. Check the restaurant menus for pink food and drinks, which will also help support partner programs.

If you go to the spas at Mandarin Oriental Hotels, ask for the Inner Strength treatment. Ten percent of the proceeds will go toward breast cancer research.

Every October, the Four Seasons  has a program called Celebrate the Pink Lady. You don’t have to be a guest to participate. Just look for pink-themed cocktails, desserts, or spa treatments to help donate to a good cause.

All year long, the InterContinental Milwaukee offers two guest rooms known as the Pink Rooms. The idea is to raise awareness, and a portion of the proceeds go to a local program that works with breast cancer patients and families.
