 Mars, Incorporated, through its Masterfoods division and M&Ms brand pledged to donate $650,000 to the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation late in 2003. To help raise awareness of the cause, Mars tied its donation to a special promotion of its M&M's Brand. The 50-cents-per-bag formulated was based on the company's goal of selling 1.3 million bags of the special pink and white candies ($650,000 divided by 1.3 million = $.50). The campaign ended when the donation cap was reached in December 2003, though some packages of the candy remain in stores more than six months later.

M&M's will repeat the campaign, beginning in September, 2004, and will donate 50 cents for each package sold to the Komen Foundation. Tentatively, they have scheduled it to run through November, but have again capped their donation at $650,000.

Here's a link you can copy and paste to purchase these M&M's online:
