Save 2nd Base Giveaway! (CLOSED)


It's no surprise that I'm a Boobie advocate all the way around! So when an opportunity presented itself to raise awareness about breast cancer--I was all over it! My great-Grandmother was a breast cancer survivor. Thanks to early detection, she beat it and went on to live a long, full, and healthy life. Despite her battle...she never lost her sense of humor...and I think this makes all the difference in the world!


In July 2006 we lost our sister and friend Kelly Rooney to breast cancer. She was 43 years old and left behind a husband and 5 children.
Cancer can take one’s hair, energy and mobility, but Kelly refused to let it take away her sense of humor. She coined the phrase “Save 2nd Base” and inspired us all. We hope our shirts inspire you! 

~Excerpt from Save 2nd Base 

Each of us has been touched by cancer in some way. A senseless disease that should be extinct from our vocabulary. Save 2nd Base's goal is to provide exposure to the Kelly Rooney Foundation. Save 2nd Base has already donated more than $30,000 to KRF and other Breast Cancer non-profits! 

While breast cancer is no laughing matter--we can combat it with humor. Check out the online store for apparel, shoes, bags, and other miscellaneous items. Great stuff for an even better cause! For as little as $7, you can pick something up and know that the proceeds are going to an amazing organization!
Do you want to help Save 2nd Base? I know you do! Go get a shirt and help send a loud and clear message!

Compliments of Save 2nd Base, I'll be giving two of the tees designed by Kelly herself, before she passed away to my readers. Let's raise awareness, support an amazing cause, and keep a sense of humor all at the same time!

BUY IT- Visit http://www.save2ndbase.com/ to read more about the Kelly Rooney Foundation and to pick something up from the online store.

This is great! I will purchase 4 hats.. For my sisters, mom, and myself.. As I shared before - My mom had a double mastectomy on March 10 and I was advised to consider a preventative mastectomy... big decision (I'm currently a DDD) I will pray and seek counsel from doctors in the know before making such a huge life changing decision.

MANDATORY ENTRY: I learned how "Save 2nd Base" got it's name and this is how..."Save 2nd Base” is a unique and humorous phrase to support the fight against Breast Cancer. A play on words of the old baseball euphemism is now synonymous with a battle cry heard ‘round the globe!"

I LOVE IT! I think I'm gonna have to buy a shirt for myself, do they sell 3XL shirts? I have huge boobies (48DDD) and an even larger butt so I need a rather large shirt.

My grandmother passed away from breast cancer after a double mastectomy when I was 4. My great aunt was diagnosed with breast cancer at 87 and survived. I had a friend diagnosed at the age of 23 - she's doing well 10 years later but it was certainly a scary time.

I have a friend who was diagnosed just weeks before her wedding. Then days before her surgery, her husband lost his job and their insurance. The whole time she was going to chemo and recovering from surgery she kept working to put food on the table and pay the rent. She is my hero. She is the very picture of survival.
