Gifts For Pink People: Supporting Breast Cancer Research

Pops of Pink are easy to find throughout Yarn. Our collaborating artists often tell stories through their artwork with our most requested colour. Plus, we’re proud to have two collections raising money for the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF). 


Christmas gifts can be tricky to balance. We don’t want to pick pink simply to create colour-coordinated clutter. The meaning behind each gift makes the people you love feel extra special. 


At Yarn, we pride ourselves on quality products that shine with authentic Indigenous artworks. Here’s our collection of Aboriginal gifts for Pink People! Celebrate the hue while giving to important causes. 


$2 is donated from every product sold in our Boobie Sista and Tribe of Women Yarn Raise collections for NBCF. As well as supporting Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists, you’re supporting life-saving breast cancer research. 


Let’s look at perfect Aboriginal art presents for pink lovers!

Tribe of Women

With artwork by Bunuba and Gija artist Eulalia Martin, the artwork Tribe of Women represents women who love and support us through life. They’re our mothers, grandmothers, daughters, relatives, and friends. 
 
“The colours represent skin colours, circles represent women of all different shapes, ages, and sizes.” - Eulalia 

Available in polos, fashion, beach towels, and more, shop and support breast cancer research with $2 from every product sold in the Tribe of Women collection supporting NBCF.

Boobie Sista

The Boobie Sista artwork was created by Kombumerri and Butchulla artist Zowie Baumgart. It’s inspired by her best friend Kelly’s battle with breast cancer. Coming up with this piece together, this artwork has become one of our all-time best sellers. 

“The circle represents the meeting space for all women battling this illness. The rainbow shapes around the circle represent the women and all the people that helped them through this rough time. Women supporting women in a very special way.” - Zowie 

From apparel to accessories, each pink item in the Boobie Sista collection supports breast cancer research and makes a stylish statement with Indigenous artwork.
