Giveaway: Yoplait Light

This giveaway is now closed and the winner (chosen by random.org) is commenter number 8, Nelly Rodriguez! Congrats Nelly, and thank you to all who entered. Nelly please contact me at kitchen_concoctions at hotmail dot com within 72 hours with your mailing information.

With October just a few weeks away, we are reminded of the importance of breast cancer awareness, education, and self exams. Since October is breast cancer awareness month it is important to know that one in eight women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with breast cancer within her lifetime – our friends, wives, mothers, sisters, neighbors.

Breast cancer is something that WE are all effected by. In my own life I have had friends and family members struggle with the painful battle against this horrible disease. We all must do our part to contribute to breast cancer education and awareness.
Yoplait is a strong believer that the fight against breast cancer starts right at home. Through ‘Save Lids to Save Lives,’ Yoplait will donate ten cents to Susan G. Komen for the Cure® for each pink lid redeemed both online at Yoplait.com and via mail by December 31, 2011, up to $2 million. Plus, Yoplait is tracking pink lids redeemed by zip code to make sure funds generated from your lid collection go back to local breast cancer programs in your community. Here´s how you can support your local community´s fight:

•Look for special pink lids on pink Yoplait yogurt cups, in grocery stores in September and October.

•Save your pink lids and redeem them via mail, or – for the first time – redeem them online at Yoplait.com. Make sure you enter your zip code when redeeming lids online!

•In addition, click here to download a printable coupon for $0.30 off any one variety Yoplait Yogurt cup!

On Yoplait.com you can dedicate your lid to a woman who means something to you, read inspirational stories about those making a difference in the fight against breast cancer and find out how to support your local Susan G. Komen Affiliate. During the past 13 years, Yoplait has donated more than $30 million to the breast cancer cause through all of its breast cancer initiatives.

    16. I organize the Cincinnati Komen Crop for the Cure which proceeds benefit the Greater Cincinnati Affiliate of Komen for the Cure. About 100 scrapbookers get together and crop from 9-9 (this year's event is on October 1) and each scrapbooker pays $50 to attend the event and then they buy raffle tickets, etc. to earn extra money to donate. It's a great event and a fun way to do your hobby and benefit a breast cancer cure at the same time.

    21. I make a yearly contribution to the American Cancer Society since my husband had colon cancer.
