Flower Power for a Cure

Jonäno Daffodil Tees for Breast Cancer Research

Jonäno debuts the Daffodil Line in an uplifting show of support for the fight against breast cancer. During October’s National Breast Cancer Awareness Month (NBCAM), you can show your own support for breast cancer research while adding a designer touch to your wardrobe. Inspired by the American Cancer Society’s Daffodil Days®, Jonäno Daffodil Tees are both stylish and inspired with a positive message: to create a “A World Without Cancer.” Wear your daffodil flower tee to honor someone special, or give one as a gift to brighten the day of someone touched by the disease – all while helping to make the jonäno mission possible.

Breast cancer is the second most common kind of cancer and the second leading cause of cancer deaths among women in the United States. During the month of October, we renew our commitment to making progress in the fight to prevent, detect, treat, and cure this deadly disease.

America leads the world in medical research, and Jonäno is committed to support continuing progress in the search for a cure for breast cancer.
One of the first flowers to bloom in the spring, the daffodil is a symbol of hope. Each year during Daffodil Days, fresh daffodils are available to purchase from The American Cancer Society, either in memory of a loved one, to celebrate a cancer survivor, or to promote the hope of a cancer-free future.

Now you can show your support year round!

These limited edition organic cotton tees with artist created daffodil images are available in both black and nude. The price is just as nice, with each tee going for just $29.95, $10 of which goes to the cancer charity of your choice!

By purchasing one of these organic cotton tees, not only will you be supporting a fantastic cause, but you will also be looking good and feeling positively uplifted.
