Breast Cancer Awareness Month

[RNsch00lnurs3, BSN, RN]

I am trying to get some ideas for breast cancer awareness month at my school for Employees. I am new at school nursing and was just informed that this is on my list of "to Dos". Every Wednesday I have to give some sort of treat.

The ideas I have:

1. Water bottles with pink lemonade crystal light packets.

2. Jeans Pass with pink shirts ($5.00) in which will be donated to Susan G. Komen

3. Pink gum packets

4. Cake or Cupcakes with pink and white.

Help! Any ideas?? I have 85 employees and they need to be cheap and not time consuming!

Thanks!!!!

What about incentives like getting to go home 15 min early one day if they either donate money to breast cancer awareness or show proof of a mammogram in the past year or have an appt to get one? That wouldn't cost you a thing but would make them more proactive if your principal would agree. Maybe you could find ideas on Pintrest. I'm not very creative so I go there for ideas a lot. Good luck! I've never had to do that!!
