Win Pippa's Helmet!

I went to the Indy 500 this year in part to see Pippa Mann and her pink car, racing for the Susan G. Komen Foundation and breast cancer awareness. One of the coolest sights was Pippa's pink helmet.

Her helmet is what started the whole journey of #PippaGoesPink, when Pippa thought to turn her normal red and yellow helmet pink for the race—and the pink kept spooling out from there! But the idea all along was to auction that race-worn, autographed helmet off to benefit Komen's efforts.

And now it's time. Pippa's helmet is up for auction this week (closing next Sunday, July 20, at 8 p.m. EST). All funds received will go to Komen Central Indiana to support local and national breast cancer research, as well as breast health services for underinsured and uninsured women in the Central Indiana community.

I'm sure the helmet is going to go for more than the small amount I could bid, but I can't be too upset because it's going to benefit such a great cause. We'll just have to hope we'll see Pippa in pink again ... maybe next year?!

Bid in the auction!
