Breast cancer can strike anyone, but it's especially tough for women who struggle with health disparities. That's why the hair care brand Thank God It's Natural, or tgin, is doing something about it. The brand was founded by Chris-Tia Donaldson, who battled breast cancer for six years before passing away in 2021. Her niece, Aris Singleton, now runs the company and continues Chris-Tia's legacy.

During Breast Cancer Awareness Month in October, tgin donates half of the proceeds from their Green Tea Super Moist Leave-In Conditioner to support uninsured women going through breast cancer treatment. This isn't just about selling products; it's about making a real difference in people's lives. The money helps with things like transportation and out-of-pocket costs for breast health services.

Green tea is known for its health benefits, and the leave-in conditioner is packed with it. It also has shea butter and honey to keep hair healthy and moisturized. While hair loss due to treatment is common, tgin wants to help women feel good about themselves throughout the journey. They believe in taking care of both beauty and health.

Black women, in particular, are encouraged to be proactive about their health. That means knowing your body and advocating for yourself at the doctor's office. It might even mean getting a second or third opinion if something doesn't feel right. tgin hosts events like 'Cocktails for the Cure' to raise awareness and funds for a bus that educates women in underserved communities all year round. For tgin, every month is about fighting breast cancer, not just October.
