Now, I don't know how dramatic the "recent months" statement really is. Click stats are available on the site, and do show some decrease. However, I just don't care. I come from non-profit work, and it's hard to keep people engaged. It's one click a day - go click to send funds to the National Breast Cancer Foundation, which "uses funds from the site specifically to provide free mammograms to minority, low-income and working-poor women living in inner cities across the United States." I'd like to see some of that money go to women in similar situations in rural areas as well, but I'm clicking anyway.
We need your help. In recent months, we have experienced a drop in the number of clicks on the "Fund Free Mammograms" button, resulting in fewer working poor, homeless and uninsured women receiving the screening they need to detect breast cancer...
Every click on the pink button sends funding to the National Breast Cancer Foundation to pay for mammograms for women who cannot afford them. The more people who click, the more free mammograms we can fund. Early detection is crucial to surviving breast cancer. The bottom line: We need more clicks.
