Help us expose and eliminate the environmental causes of breast cancer.
Together we can stop this disease before it starts.
Pink Ribbons to Prevention
This October, or Breast Cancer Awareness Month, young survivors like Nola are calling for action to prevent the disease. While there is great public awareness of breast cancer—with pink ribbons covering everything from makeup bottles to energy drinks— the emphasis has been on screening, treatment and searches for a cure. Survivors are joining forces with the Breast Cancer Fund to shift public focus to prevention—to changing the odds so that far fewer people will ever have to hear the words “you have breast cancer.” Follow our campaign on Facebook and Twitter.
