Ladies are not the ones who care about Breast cancer. A group of kids -or should we say matured men, now- from the famed boyband New Kids On The Block are encouraging us to care and help in any way to find the cure. It turns out that Danny Wood’s mother battled breast cancer before she passed away, and this made Danny and the rest of the New Kids wanted to do something to honor her memory and benefit their fans.
People.com reported Danny’s statement:
“A lot of the women coming to the shows need to be aware of early detection. They’re in that age from 25-35 where they need to get their first exams. That was the problem for my mother. By the time she found out, it was too late and I don’t want that to happen to anyone else when it could be prevented.”
New Kids on The Block support the cause and keeping the memory of Elizabeth Wood alive, they are selling a limited-edition NKOTB tanks, featuring the Breast Cancer Pink Ribbon. Each are retailed for $35 and all proceeds will go to support Susan G. Komen for the Cure.
The tanks are available for purchase here.
