The MAMBI family has been affected by a variety of different cancers. A diagnosis of cancer is always life changing. It alters awareness and makes life seem very precious.
Education, Awareness, Early Detection and Treatment are critical.
We have created fun, “lifestyle” products to support breast cancer and celebrate SURVIVORS! These colorful products, full of bling, will be available in MAY.

One very special breast cancer SURVIVOR is Kay McConnaughey. Kay is a MAMBI artist. She was the first...the creator of the beloved "stick kids" and so much more!
Here is Kay's story...
Right on, SISTA! Well said. When you join
the 'Breast Cancer Sisterhood' you do enter into a world of hope,compassion and faith. Thanks for creating/dedicating this beautiful line to breast cancer. Your story has and WILL continue to touch many more lives....keep on keeping on!!

Hello...
You say that the MAMBI family has been affected by many types of cancers. Yet you have chosen to focus on breast cancer, just as so many other companies and organizations have. While I am pleased that you have decided to create fun, lifestyle products to support breast cancer I am wondering, what about women with other forms of cancer? I ask because I am currently in remission - having fought a hard battle against cancer - but I have ovarian cancer. There is absolutely nothing out there for women like me who have cancer but not breast cancer. I would love to see a product line dedicated to ovarian cancer. I would love to be able to find scrapbook paper and stickers in teal instead of pink (teal is the color of ovarian cancer awareness). I saw your ad on the back of the April 2011 issue of Scrapbooks Etc. magazine. Like I said, I applaud your efforts of "living creatively for the cause," but wish that companies like yours realized that breast cancer is not the only cancer that affects women. Pink is not the only color of women's cancer ribbons! Please consider my request for designing/creating a similar line of fun, lifestyle products that bring awareness and support for ovarian cancer. Thank you very much. With much Shalom to you and your company, Stacy

Hi Stacy. Thank you for your question. Our Breast Cancer product line is our first of such products for mambi. Our tagline, Living creatively for the cause, is a statement that we are committed to helping where we can. And to start, we chose breast cancer because of the massive affect it has had on our family and friends.
I love your idea of the multiple ribbon colors! We will definitely keep it in mind. And thank you again for your comment.
