FORT WORTH, Texas — Boobs! 

Now, that we have your attention: Texas Health Resources just announced the winners of a contest centered around raising awareness for breast cancer.

The annual competition -- known formally as the Kupferle Breast Center Bra Art Contest -- asks contestants to create or decorate a bra that shows how breast cancer has impacted their lives, according to a release from Texas Health.

“Our annual Bra Art competition brings messages of hope and survival for ‘Breast Friends’ everywhere,” Texas Health Fort Worth added in a Facebook post.

The goal is to not only share the importance of breast cancer awareness, but to bring forth more information about early detection and care.

Just a few more days to enter!
