With many of the proceeds from special breast cancer collections donated in part or in full donated to the cause, now is the perfect time to give to a worthy cause.

There’s always the option for donations directly to funds like the Canadian Cancer Society or Canadian Breast Cancer Network, but if you’re looking for an extra-special gift that gives back, have a look at eight of our favourite limited-edition collections whose proceeds help support breast cancer research.

Girlfriend Collective
