This October, Source Vitál is once again supporting The Rose, a Houston based nonprofit providing breast health services throughout Southeast Texas. For every order placed at SourceVital.com during Breast Cancer Awareness Month, we will donate $1 to The Rose to help support its work providing access to breast health care.
Why We Support The Rose
October brings a lot of pink. For us, Breast Cancer Awareness Month is also an opportunity to support an organization doing important work right here in our community.
The Rose has served women across Southeast Texas for decades, providing breast health services to both insured and uninsured patients. Its services include screening mammograms, diagnostic mammograms, ultrasounds, biopsies and access to care for women who might otherwise struggle to receive it.
That mission is why we continue to support The Rose year after year.
$1 From Every October Order Goes to The Rose
Throughout October, Source Vitál will donate $1 to The Rose for every order placed at SourceVital.com.
There is no special product to purchase and no code to remember. Simply place an order during October and it counts toward our donation.
You may also notice something different when your package arrives. October orders include a pink sticker as a small reminder that your purchase was part of our annual effort to support The Rose.
Breast Health Deserves Attention All Year
Breast Cancer Awareness Month puts breast health in the spotlight, but paying attention to your body should not be limited to October.
Regular screenings and conversations with your health care provider are important parts of breast health. The appropriate screening schedule can vary based on age, family history and individual risk, so speak with your health care provider about what makes sense for you.
October can also serve as a simple reminder to check in with yourself. Have you scheduled the appointments you have been putting off? Do you know your family history? Have you talked with the people you care about and reminded them to make their health a priority too?
Those conversations matter.
Caring for the Skin Around Your Breasts
Breast care can also include caring for the skin on your chest and breasts as part of your regular body care routine.
The skin in this area can experience dryness and changes in appearance just like skin elsewhere on the body. Gentle cleansing, moisturizing and occasional exfoliation can help keep it feeling soft and comfortable.
We previously put together an at home breast care routine using body oils, Laminaria Algae Powder and other Source Vitál products. If you would like to add a little extra skin care to your breast health routine, you can read our breast care ritual here.
Just remember that skin care is not a substitute for breast screenings or medical care. Think of it as simply giving an area of your body that is sometimes overlooked the same thoughtful care you give the rest of your skin.
Small Actions Can Add Up
Our annual October campaign is intentionally simple.
You shop for the Source Vitál products you already use. We set aside $1 from every order for The Rose. Together, all of those individual orders become something much bigger by the end of the month.
You can also support breast health by talking about screenings with friends and family, sharing reliable breast health information or giving directly to organizations providing care in your community.

Thank you for helping us support The Rose again this October.
