If you’ve been around here in past Septembers, you know that for two years going, we’ve marked Ovarian Cancer Awareness Month at Bleeding Espresso — and this year is no different.

Well, it’s a little different because this year I’ve lined up some of the fabulous jewelry designers I’ve mentioned in the past (5 Ways to Raise Ovarian Cancer Awareness Through Jewelry) for giveaways to encourage you to go to their sites, have a look around, and perhaps purchase an item whose proceeds go to various ovarian cancer awareness funds.

*

Ovarian cancer is often called the “silent killer,” because many of its symptoms can be mistaken for minor illnesses. But as women, it is up to us to let our doctors know when something just isn’t right, so please read up on the signs & symptoms of ovarian cancer, and don’t be afraid to speak up — and men, please forward this information to the women you love.

Today I’m proud to welcome Angela Moore and her gorgeous jewelry collection, which includes this brand new ovarian cancer awareness bracelet; purchases from this collection donate 15% back to the OCNA (Ovarian Cancer National Alliance).

    Your items are fun and fabulous! I particularly love the Golden Rule Classic Bracelet. My niece is a 4th grade teacher in NH and I know how hard she works and (sadly) has to buy quite a few things for her students with her own money. Dedicated teachers are the best!!!!

    These are some beautiful bracelets. My wife has been fighting ovarian cancer, along with a team of skilled specialists, for the past few months. I’ll definitely buy some of this jewelry to help support the effort to stop this terrible disease.
