A Way to Support my Mum
For me it's about not being intimated by the colour of Purple Boots and My questions is "Why Not" there should be no reason why you wouldn't wear purple boots - and the fact that can wear them and raise awareness and funds for a worthy cause inspires me to wear them everywhere.
For me the cause is close to home, my mother is a breast cancer survivor, having been diagnosed in December 2006 - just before the purple boots were launched. I saw a way I could contribute to the awareness of breast cancer, a way I could encourgage other men to be involved and I have made it my goal to be actively raising money for the Foundation here in WA every opportunity I get. To date I have raised $10,000 as part of the annual Purple Bra Day.
that's MY story!

Way to go Stephen - you know that all of us at BCFWA love you - but it's so great that men like you have chosen to be a part of getting the breast awareness message "out there"
