A few weeks ago, we visited a little place in Riverside called The Pink Ribbon Place. They promote breast cancer awareness and provide no cost resources for those affected with the disease. Some of the resources they provide are hats, scarves, and turbans for women going through chemotherapy or experiencing hair loss. Weren't we surprised when our tour guide Erin pulled out a lovely crocheted hat as a sample of items they provide for free. Certainly right up our alley, and brings us back to one of our Fall Must-Haves, The knit beanie.
Wouldn't you love to get a free knit beanie? That's why in the near future we'll be presenting a prototype for a knit beanie in hopes they may want to partner with us to give them away. The organization partners with several other companies already. Knitted Knockers, a nonprofit company, provides knitted prosthesis for breast cancer survivors. They look soft, comfortable, and stylish. They also partner with the American Cancer Society and offer free wigs through a collaboration with Pantene.

The Pink Ribbon Place offers a slew of services and resources including free new and used bras, support groups, counseling, and Saturday morning yoga. All for FREE! Who doesn't love free stuff?
The Pink Ribbon Place has a thrift store called Pink Ribbon Thrift which recently opened in August 2017. We haven't checked it out yet but hope to in the future. Proceeds from the thrift store help fund the services provided at The Pink Ribbon Place.
The Pink Ribbon Place is definitely a hidden treasure we found in the city of Riverside. Stay tuned for our prototype and if you get a chance to visit The Pink Ribbon Place or Pink Ribbon Thrift, be sure to tell us about your experience in the comments.
