October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month. You probably have seen ads on TV or BCA walks popping up all over your local area. Even the NFL is involved this month wearing everything from pink chin straps to pink sneakers. Good for them. This month is bound to be all about the PINK, and for good reason.
We are strong supporters of Breast Cancer Awareness & Research.

We have to give a major pat on the back to our friends over at Pilot not only for their innovative products, but for always thinking about Mother Earth. They have a whole line of fantastic products, like the world’s first pen made from recycled plastic bottles, that are eco-friendly. The line is called the Pilot BeGreen line and is the world’s first full line of earth-friendly writing instruments.
Here’s how it works:
All Pilot BeGreen products are composed of at least 70% recycled material and are offered in most of the major writing instrument categories – Gel Ink Rolling Ball, Liquid Ink Rolling Ball, Ball Point, Mechanical Pencil and Permanent Marker – thus the full line of Pilot BeGreen products offers a wide selection of choices that can be part of your everyday commitment to make our planet cleaner and healthier.
Today, we are highlighting our favorite products from the Pilot BeGreen line. Let us know what you think!
