Pink is the Andy Boy Color
Since 1999, D’Arrigo California has donated over $2 million to The Breast Cancer Research Foundation to fund innovative breast cancer research. A pink ribbon adorns the packaging and cartons of Andy Boy products that you find in grocery stores and restaurants across North America. This is one of the ways the company is helping raise awareness for breast cancer. It is our shared goal to increase prevention through education, and find a cure for breast cancer during our lifetime.

About the Breast Cancer Research Foundation®
Founded by Evelyn H. Lauder in 1993, The Breast Cancer Research Foundation® (BCRF) has raised more than $400 million to advance the most promising breast cancer research worldwide that will help lead to prevention and a cure in our lifetime. In 2012-2013, BCRF grants will be supporting 197 dedicated researchers at major medical institutions across the globe. If not for BCRF, many facts about the genetic basis of breast cancer would not be known, the link between exercise, nutrition and breast cancer risk would not be established, and the rate of mortalities would not continue its downward curve. BCRF-funded scientists are responsible for these and many other critical achievements. Currently, 91 cents of every dollar spent by BCRF is directed towards breast cancer research and awareness programs. BCRF remains one of the most fiscally responsible charities in the country. For the tenth time since 2002, it has earned 4 stars from Charity Navigator. Additionally, BCRF is the only breast cancer organization rated an “A+” by CharityWatch.
