In this pink October, dedicated to the fight against the cander breast, these women entrepreneurs of Ploudalmézeau (Finistère) have chosen to mobilize in their own way.
Until Tuesday, October 31, each in its business provides the public with a "pink bra box" designed to receive all these bras too small, too large, or simply forgotten and cluttering our drawers!
Works sold at auction
"The collected bras will be reused to animate the Pink Bra Workshops", explains Christelle Bertrand, initiator of the project on Ploudalmézeau. These meetings are divided between creative moments to customize a bra and awareness time to learn how to reduce the risk of developing breast cancer.
The works thus produced will then be auctioned off for the benefit of associations working for the sick or research against cancer.
More than 500 bras collected
Already more than 500 bras collected and a beautiful harvest of testimonials and ideas to implement later. "Why not also recover the wigs that could be recycled and reused? Proposed a client of Christelle.
