Is Feel Your Boobies® a
non-profit?
Yes. The Feel
Your Boobies® Foundation is a 501c3 non-profit organization whose
mission is to utilize innovative and unconventional methods to
remind young girls, and all women, about the importance of engaging
in the proactive, healthy habit of feeling your boobies.
Where
does the money raised by Feel Your Boobies® go?
Profits from
merchandise sales and donations made to the Feel Your Boobies®
Foundation are used to fund our annual "Are You Doing It?"® Reminder
Campaign. This annual campaign focuses on the use of media to spread
the Feel Your Boobies® reminder. In the past, our campaign has
included initiatives such as the Boobies Bus®, Boobies at the Beach
promotion, National Feel Your Boobies® Week, the Boobies Bash®, and
a Free Car Magnet Facebook Application. To learn more, check out our
Programs Page.
Does
Feel Your Boobies® fund breast cancer research?
No. Feel Your Boobies®
focuses specifically and solely on the creation of our annual
Reminder Campaign. Our sole focus is on finding creative ways to
remind young women to "feel their boobies."
Is Feel Your Boobies® associated with any other non-profits?
The Feel Your Boobies®
Foundation is a 501c3 organization and works independently in
pursuit of its own mission. In addition, we also have collaborated
with other non-profits such as the Young Survival Coalition and the
American Cancer Society to create co-branded campaigns as well.
Why can’t you use the word “breast” instead of “boobies”?
In order to get
the attention of young women in a way they can relate to, the Feel
Your Boobies® campaign aims to use language and methods common to a
younger population. Most breast cancer materials are written in
a way
that generally targets older women or breast cancer survivors
solely. Younger women, for the most part, don’t talk about breast
cancer or think of themselves at risk. Feel Your Boobies® uses a
provocative and sexy approach to encourage lighthearted conversation
in public places where this topic would not normally be discussed.
We believe this conversation is needed, necessary, and life saving.
I want to help spread this message. Can I put Feel Your Boobies® on
my own t-shirt to help this campaign?
No. Feel Your Boobies®
is a registered trademark that is licensed solely to the Feel Your
Boobies® Foundation for use in fundraising for Reminder its annual
Campaign. The use of this trademark is the Foundation’s sole method
for pursuing its mission and therefore we actively protect it.
Why are the
majority of your shirt styles fitted?
Since our primary target audience are younger women, we aim to carry
styles that cater specifically to this audience. We realize that
boobies come in all shapes and sizes and to have unisex styles as
well in an effort to provide options for everyone.
I love Feel
Your Boobies. How can I volunteer or get involved where I live?
We love Boobies enthusiasts and are so thankful for all the kind
messages and emails we receive. Since Feel Your Boobies is primarily
a media campaign, the best way to help our our campaign is to be
sure you are a part of our online community. Join our email list,
become our Fan and join our Cause page on Facebook, follow us on
Twitter, and be sure to send our updates along to your friends. In
addition, if your office or neighborhood is holding a fundraiser and
wants to donate to a breast cancer charity, please consider donating
to Feel Your Boobies.
