Why Breast Cancer Awareness Month Matters to Us

Why Breast Cancer Awareness Month Matters to Us

October is coming up, and every October, we’re all surrounded by pink ribbons and reminders that it's Breast Cancer Awareness Month. For so many families, this awareness is personal.

Our mission has always been about connection — helping people honor moments, memories, and milestones in a meaningful way. And during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we want to recognize the strength of all those facing a breast cancer diagnosis, to remember those we've lost, and to honor the survivors who inspire us to never give up hope.

The Forged Flare® Mother's Angels® 3.5" Angel Ornament features a pink breast cancer awareness ribbon; a portion of proceeds benefits Susan G. Komen. Perfect charity gift for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.

Why We Partnered with Susan G. Komen® for Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Our customers had asked for a Mother’s Angels® design that is inspired by breast cancer awareness since the beginning of our business, and while we knew we needed to create one, we didn't want it to be just a symbol. We wanted it to make an impact in both sentiment and action.

That’s why we chose to reach out to Susan G. Komen® with a hope of helping. Komen is one of the most trusted and well-respected organizations in the mission to end breast cancer. Through their groundbreaking research, community outreach, and support services, Komen continues to lead the way toward a world without breast cancer.

You can read more about why we support this organization and how this partnership came to life right here.

A Small Ornament with a Whole Lot of Heart

Our Mother’s Angels® Breast Cancer Awareness Ribbon ornament was created to do more than just look pretty — it’s meant to comfort, to uplift, and to honor the love that surrounds anyone touched by breast cancer. Whether you’re giving it to someone in the middle of their treatment, remembering someone dear to you, or just showing your support, this angel was made with that kind of moment in mind.

Sure, it makes a meaningful gift during the holidays or if you’re searching for Christmas ornaments that give back, but this one isn’t just for Christmas. It’s made to be seen and cherished all year long. It’s small enough to sit on a bedside table or hospital room shelf, and it catches the light beautifully in a sunny window. Wherever it goes, it offers a quiet reminder of courage and love.

Each one is handcrafted by our small team here in Texas, with a three-layered design that combines wood and acrylic — and features a classic pink ribbon at the heart of it all. Like everything we make, it’s made with so much love. Not mass-produced. Not rushed. Just real people, pouring love into every detail.

You can find the ornament right here.

This Month — and Always — We Remember

Breast Cancer Awareness Month reminds each other that no one has to walk this road alone. Remembering the names, faces, and stories that drive this movement forward is so important.

If you’re looking for a way to give back while giving a meaningful gift, this angel is a beautiful place to start. A portion of the proceeds from every Breast Cancer Awareness Ribbon ornament goes directly to Susan G. Komen® — because we want to be part of the solution, not just the conversation.
