The yellow "LiveStrong" bracelet promoted by Lance Armstrong to fund cancer research, seen on the wrist of Hollywood celebrities and American presidential candidates has reached cult status for school children, becoming an easy way to collect funds for charity and sometimes pure profit.


"I buy a bunch of them on the internet and sell them to friends, the best-selling are the hard to find colors," says Philip, a tenth grader who prefers not to use his last name.


The kids view the color first, before reading the slogans on the wristbands, to raise money for breast cancer research, to fight AIDS (news - web sites), autism, colorectal cancer, medical malpractice, support Israel, bone marrow donations, or simply finance a school's Parents Teachers Association.
