It’s actually starting to cool down a little around Austin. This must mean that autumn is right around the corner. If autumn is near, then great things like fall leaves, Thanksgiving and Halloween are close at hand. Another exceptional event that takes place in autumn is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Founded in 1985, Breast Cancer Awareness Month was created as an annual campaign to raise funds for research, to increase awareness and to offer support to those affected by the disease.

I took a look through Absorbent, Ink. and found some products that will be perfect for any Breast Cancer Awareness events, fundraisers or promotions. Check these out:

Absorbent, Ink. has a large selection of stress balls to choose from, but two in particular are perfect for Breast Cancer Awareness. The Pink Ribbon Stress Ball is perfect for any fundraising event or giveaway and it will make your logo squeezable.

Magnetic Awareness Ribbons also offer staying power. These great magnets can stick to cars, refrigerators, filing cabinets and any other magnetic surface you’d like to decorate.

Why not organize a golf tournament for charity? These Ribbon Golf Balls would make the perfect accessory to any golf game. They feature the Susan G.

September is almost here, do you know what means? That means that Labor Day is coming up! Labor Day started in 1882 as a day for hard workers to relax and be recognized for their contribution to the prosperity of our country. It falls on the first Monday in September and is celebrated as the last summer break for us working folks.

These days, most Americans use Labor Day for travel, relaxation, barbequing and football. Sounds great to me! Why not use this holiday as a chance to thank your hard working employees, volunteers, friends or neighbors with some great American made gifts.

If you are thinking about having some fun in the sun, Absorbent, Ink. has a great selection of American made products to choose from. Drinkware is a highly popular gift idea to help beat the heat. Why not give durable and long lasting Aluminum Water Bottles and Custom Sports Bottles? They are an excellent giveaway for outdoor promotions and sporting events. Custom Can Holders and colorful Stadium Cups are fantastic for pool parties, concerts and backyard barbecues. Drinkware is the perfect way to put your logo into the hands of recipients time and time again.

If you are a big sports fan, then you already know that Labor Day marks the beginning of the football season too. Why not promote in the stands with Folding Stadium Cushions? They are available in a variety of colors and styles that will look sensational customized with your logo. If you want to root on the home team Spirit Wavers and Vinyl Pennants are great ways to stand out in a crowd.

Teachers are heading back to work, school supplies are disappearing from store shelves and the summer is winding down. This can only mean one thing; it is back to school time! The kids are hitting the books again and that makes it the perfect time to start planning for school promotions. School spirit is about rallying students together as a group to build unity and school pride. School spirit items are great for fundraisers, supporting the local teams and building enthusiasm for the community.

Some of my favorite school spirit items are silicone bracelets, temporary tattoos and custom dog tags. These items make unique and fun giveaways that students will love, any time of the year.  Custom Silicone Bracelets are terrific because they are highly durable, appeal to students of every age and will get worn repeatedly. Rubber awareness bracelets are available in a veritable rainbow of colors and can be customized with logos, messages or school mottos.

Temporary tattoos are always a popular promotional item. They’re inexpensive, easy to distribute, look great and can be customized with nearly any artwork or logo. Temporary Tattoos are quick to apply, easy to remove and a great way to promote school spirit. Another great item that can be worn with pride is a personalized dog tag. Custom Dog Tags are a fun school spirit idea that students will love. They come in a variety of colors and styles that can be customized with your logo, slogan or mascot.

If you’re looking for items that will stand out in a crowd, keep custom pennants and Cheering Pom Poms in mind. Personalized Pom Poms and Custom Pennants are perfect for cheering on a crowd at sporting events, pep rallies and school events. Grab some pom poms and wave a pennant around to really show off your school spirit!

No matter the time of year, custom School Spirit Items are always a welcome addition to any event.
