    Hi, Susan

    Alexandra's right - the sale of inexpensive awareness stuff from sites like Zazzle, Oriental Trading Company, etc. benefits no one but themselves. However, I do buy a lot of teal items from places like these with the intention of GIVING IT ALL AWAY to as many people as possible, thus raising OVCA awareness in my network of friends and beyond. Also, the Teal Toes symptom cards from tealtoes.org are free. I wish I could afford bulk purchases of the really gorgeous things on some of the other sites, but I guess it depends on what you intend to do with the items you buy. 

    Good luck with your awareness efforts!

    Cheers, Jo

    Teal stuff

    Ovarian Cancer Canada Teal Shop https://www.shopgenumark.com/ovariancanada/index.php?cPath=9&osCsid=q83olijkqscrbkm9aea4v32gn7

    Ovations for the Cure Ovarian Cancer Butterfly Boutique http://www.ovationsforthecure.org/boutique/

    National Ovarian Cancer Coalition Marketplace http://www.ovarian.org/marketplace.php

    Ovarian Cancer Research Fund http://www.ocrf.org/products-page shop is under construction, but you could donate.

    When you buy teal stuff off ebay, amazon, zazzle, cafepress, etc. I doubt that it benefits anyone but the seller.
