Production Information “We used to march in the streets; now we run for a cure.” Barbara Ehrenreich, author of “Welcome to Cancerland” Breast cancer has become the poster child of corporate cause-related marketing campaigns. Countless women and men walk, bike, climb and shop for the cure. Each year, millions of dollars are raised in the name of breast cancer, but where does this money go and what does it actually achieve? Pink Ribbons, Inc. is a feature documentary that shows how the devastating reality of breast cancer, which marketing experts have labeled a “dream cause,” becomes obfuscated by a shiny, pink story of success. Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Léa Pool, Pink Ribbons, Inc. is produced and executive produced by Ravida Din for the National Film Board of Canada. A PINK MYTH? A Pink Myth—emblematized by the ubiquitous pink ribbons of cause-related marketing and philanthropy—permeates our culture, assuring us that: We are engaged in a highly-successful battle against breast cancer; We are very close to finding a cure.

Cause-Marketing and Breast Cancer: the Efficacy of Pinkwashing in the United States
Cause-Marketing and Breast Cancer: The Efficacy of Pinkwashing in the United States An STS Research Paper presented to the faculty of the School of Engineering and Applied Science University of Virginia by Kaylee O’Donnell March 27, 2020 On my honor as a University student, I have neither given nor received unauthorized aid on this assignment as defined by the Honor Guidelines for Thesis-Related Assignments. Signed: _________________________________________________ Approved: _______________________________________ Date ________________________ 1 Cause-Marketing and Breast Cancer: The Efficacy of Pinkwashing in the United States Companies that sell “pink products,” committing a portion of proceeds to cancer funds, often also sell carcinogenic products. Only a small fraction of the money raised goes towards cancer research or treatment. Such cause-marketing is called “pinkwashing” which has grown more conspicuous over the course of the 21st century. Pink ribbons, an international symbol of breast cancer awareness, were first associated with breast cancer in 1990 when Charlotte Haley distributed peach-colored ribbons attached to note cards to alert citizens that only a small percentage the National Cancer Institute’s annual budget went towards cancer prevention (Burke, 1992). Self magazine approached Haley about using her ribbons for a breast cancer awareness issue. When she refused on the grounds of commercialism, Self switched to pink to avoid legal trouble (National Film Board of Canada, 2011). Pink ribbons were quickly adopted by breast cancer charities and other organizations and are still used today, especially in October, which is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month in the United States. “Pinkwashing” was coined by Breast Cancer Action (BCA), an activist organization, in its “Think Before You Pink” campaign in 2002.

Pink Ribbon Sunday Mammography Awareness Program Guide
Dear Friends: I invite you to join us in the fight against breast cancer. Become a member of our Pink Ribbon Sunday team. Across the country, congregations of all denominations are helping to save lives by joining the Pink Ribbon Sunday Program developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Office of Women’s Health (OWH). The program provides leaders like you with free resources to help educate the women in their church and community about mammography. This education is vitally important because mammography is the best tool we have to detect breast cancer early. The Pink Ribbon Sunday program works with churches, mosques, and temples because they are a main source of spiritual and economic support for African American and Hispanic communities. The program provides religious institutions with a guide and free resources to help them develop mammography awareness activities. The first Pink Ribbon Sunday campaign was conducted at 153 churches in Houston, TX in partnership with the local American Cancer Society. The program has since expanded nationwide to include rural and urban communities from Georgia to Puerto Rico and Washington, DC to Oklahoma. The Pink Ribbon Sunday Program has reached over 100,000 women and with your help this number will continue to grow. As an active member of your congregation, you can play an instrumental role in this program. You can use your influence to raise awareness, provide hope, and inspire others to respond to this vital women’s health issue. It is easy. Just follow the five simple steps outlined in this guide to organize a Pink Ribbon event in your community.

The Power of Pink: Cause-Related Marketing and the Impact on Breast Cancer Jennifer A
The Power of Pink: Cause-Related Marketing and the Impact on Breast Cancer Jennifer A. Harvey, MDa, Michal A. Strahilevitz, PhDb The pink ribbon is one of the most widely recognized symbols in the United States. It can symbolize strength, hope, responsibility, empathy, and permission to discuss breast cancer, though not all associations are uniformly positive. Cause-related marketing is an agreement between nonprofit and for-profit organizations to promote a product that provides benefit for the cause through increasing awareness and financial contributions from sales. For-profit organizations benefit through the association of the positive ideology of the pink ribbon. The relationship between the organizations should be mutually beneficial; the percentage of funds donated should be reasonable, and the organizations that benefit should be respected institutions. Many breast cancer organi- zations have obtained significant benefit from corporate partnerships in cause-related marketing. Certainly, breast cancer awareness is much stronger now than 15 years ago. However, not all products are appropriate for promotion, particularly products that may increase the risk for breast cancer, such as alcohol. No corporation is licensed to have exclusive use of the pink ribbon symbol, leaving it open to potential abuse. Backlash by consumers has raised awareness of the misuse of the pink ribbon and cause-related marketing. As marketing becomes more global, the impact of the pink ribbon in the third world may spur open dialogue and reduce the taboo associated with breast cancer observed in some cultures. Key Words: Marketing, consumerism, breast cancer, research funding J Am Coll Radiol 2009;6:26-32. Copyright © 2009 American College of Radiology October is easy to recognize.

10 Reasons Why the Pink Ribbon Is Worn Out
10 Reasons Why the Pink Ribbon Is Worn Out nancyspoint.com /ten-things-wrong-with-the-pink-ribbon/ What’s so bad about the pink ribbon? I get this question all the time and it’s a good one, so I thought I’d share my ideas on why the pink ribbon has lost its appeal to so many. Pink itself is not a problem. It’s only a color. And ribbons are not the problem – they’re just ribbons! But then we have a certain ribbon that has received oodles of attention as well as a fair amount of criticism, and that of course, is the almighty pink ribbon. I wonder if there is anyone in this part of the world anyway who hasn’t seen the pink ribbon. It’s everywhere. And not just during October’s Breast Cancer Awareness Month anymore. No, now you can see it year round slapped onto to this, that and the other thing. And this is the problem. The dang ribbon is everywhere! The pink ribbon might have been a good symbol at one time, but now it is overused and too often misused. The pink ribbon is worn out. You know how coaches, moms and dads and even teachers will hand out ribbons for everything? It’s an attempt to make every child feel good. But sometimes too many ribbons are given out and as a result, the ribbons lose their meaning. The same can be said for the mother of all ribbons, that infamous pink one … And the problems with the pink ribbon keep on stacking up.
