Have any of you come across everyday products supporting BCNA?  Today as I was doing my supermarket shop I came across Reflex paper reams with the BCNA logo. Nice to see!

    It's great. I'd love some Tshirts but many sites I don't think go towards research just to their pockets as it isn't mentioned. I wanted fun ones. ..like  "yes their fake the real ones tried to kill me" and  the one " no matter how you feel,  get up, dress up, show up and never give up" I really wanted the second one mid chemo.

    Haven't seen too many everyday products supporting BCNA but Sussan is a major sponsor / contributor and obviously Baker's Delight (pink bun campaign). BCNA also have a Product Partner section on their website https://www.bcna.org.au/get-involved/buy-from-bcna-product-partners/ . Just checked it out - I didn't know Yates had a BCNA Dianthus seed pack, so will keep an eye out for that one  :)

    Perhaps BCNA office can put up a post at some stage listing these companies that support so we are aware for our own purchases

    I bought some gloves to keep the sun off my hands from the cancer council but not seen any actual bnca products. Hoping the council does donate some toward the breast side of things.

    We have a little shop with BCNA products such as t-shirts, caps, key chains, etc. Personally, I love the ankle socks. They're very comfy.

    Beyond that, BCNA has a number of partners such as Bakers Delight and product partners such as FlorsheimCarman's, and Berlei that all have products the sales of which help support BCNA. You can see a list of them here: https://www.bcna.org.au/about-us/partnerships/. But the list doesn't show the items so we'll see about putting a list together.

    Thanks for the suggestion!

    Hi @iserbrown, this is a fantastic idea! I have talked to the Partnerships team and we're working on a page that will go up very shortly. 

    Thanks for the suggestion :D

    Thank you - we all like to try and give back where we can and this is a good way to do so
