It’s that time of the month, everything in Bijou has (or will be soon) turned pink! Last year at this time, we raised over $1000 for the national breast cancer foundation. Bijou made the commitment to donate 10% of our service sales to help find a cure for breast cancer. I believe every little bit helps! So keep in mind, every dollar you spend at Bijou for the month of October, 10% will go to finding a cure! Thanks, once again for participating! I would really love any suggestions for where is the best place to send it, last year I just did the national breast cancer foundation, but am open to any great suggestions!
Be sure to keep up on our blog, we keep adding exciting news and coverage for the Pink cow bingo, any questions…just ask us, we’ll find the answers for you! PLUS we have tickets, stop in and buy one or two or five!

Everyone has always been so supportive and it is my great honor to use Bijou as a “vehicle” to raise money for very special causes!
