How You Can Help a Breast Cancer Survivor
Donate by October 31, 2019, and 100% of your donation will help find new treatment options for a breast cancer survivor or improve their quality of life.
You can make a difference. Help a breast cancer survivor now. Please donate here1, and watch 100% of your money go to breast cancer research.
“Some organizations recognize Breast Cancer Awareness Month with fun runs, galas, pink socks, or other activities to make others aware of breast cancer and its impact on one in eight people in the U.S. Some organizations may use a (sometimes small) percentage of funds for awarding breast cancer research grants,” said Beth Boyd, RN, Chairman of The American Society of Breast Surgeons Foundation. “More research can help us increase our chances of finding new treatments and improving quality of life.”
Here’s how we’ll make sure 100% of your donation in October goes to fund only breast cancer research:
1. Our call for grant applications, including a call for research grants, is open now. Our organization both receives the proposals and provides the grant funding.
2. We will collect online donations through October 31, 2019.
3. On November 1, we will announce the total amount we received in donations in October 2019.
4. During January 2020-March 2020, our grants committee will review the received grant proposals.
5. Then in May 2020, we will announce and celebrate the grant winners and amounts awarded.
All support is welcome. If you are not in a position to give a donation at this time, you can also make a great impact by hosting a fundraiser on Facebook2.
If you are looking for funds for your breast cancer research project, see our grant application page3 to learn more about those opportunities and apply.
