September is a busy month, it's not only the awareness month for Childhood Cancer, Ovarian Cancer, and Blood Cancers, it's also Prostate Cancer Awareness Month! Since we love all our causes at Revive Jewelry, let's talk about our charity partner, Prostate Cancer Foundation. Read on to find out about their mission, accomplishments & how you can easily get involved today.
About Prostate Cancer Foundation
Every 3 minutes a man is diagnosed with prostate cancer. In America, prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men after skin cancer. That's why the Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCF) is dedicated to funding the best research and pushing forward toward a cure to rid the world of this disease for good.
Mission
According to their website,"The Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCF) funds the world’s most promising research to improve the prevention, detection, and treatment of prostate cancer and ultimately cure it for good."
Can you see why this organization is our favorite pick to support prostate cancer research?!

Accomplishments
For 27 years the Prostate Cancer Foundation has raised money and funded research to get us to this point today. More than $800 million has been given to more than 2,200 research projects. These projects have created better treatments and medications that extend life. There's even a scan to see if you have prostate cancer & a test to determine if you're at risk for developing prostate cancer.
Probably most impressive is that PCF has helped reduce the death rate from prostate cancer by over 50%!
Now let's talk about how you can help continue the amazing work they're doing!
