Cool wristbands help kids to stay away from cigarettes

My kids must have twenty or more of those bright colored, rubbery wristbands. They have the LiveStrong one. A couple of green, yellow and purple Hurricane Katrina ones and hand fulls of other bands that support good causes. I just found a new one on the Internet that I am going to order for them. It is a red 1200 band.

Everyday 1200 Americans die from smoking related illnesses ranging from cancer to heart disease. It is not only smokers who die but people who are exposed to the dangers of second had smoke. The financial tab for these illnesses tops $75 billion dollars per year. The emotional tab is the grief and loss so many of us feel from losing our loved ones to this habit.

The bands come in packs of ten for just $10. These would be great to hand out at a social event or to share with your neighbors. The site also offers water bottles, hooded sweatshirts and cool dog tags.
