That’s why we provide financial assistance to patients who are living in poverty while in treatment.
"We are all hoping for a world where breast cancer doesn't exist,
but right now, we help breast cancer patients with the short-term
financial support they need so they can focus on getting well."
- Donna Sheehan, Founder, breast cancer survivor
Who We Help
We provide financial assistance to daughters, wives, sisters, friends and colleagues, from the age of 24 and up.
Working women, young mothers, single mothers, students, single women, the self-employed, women and men living on social assistance and those living without benefit of extended family or support networks, patients in the earliest stage of breast cancer, and those diagnosed with Stage IV metastatic breast cancer.
Did You Know...
Who We Help
40% of the patients we support are single mothers.
Cost of Breast Cancer
The truth about breast cancer is that the financial burden can be just as devastating as the physical and emotional impact.
Mission & Vision
Our mission is to support breast cancer patients on their journey to wellness by providing short-term financial support.
Help support women in their greatest time of need.
Let her know she's not alone.
We want to help women with breast cancer. Not someday. Today. Because the rent is due. Groceries must be bought. Hospital parking is expensive. And lost wages during treatment and recovery means less money for the bills.
So despite millions raised to find a cure, very little priority has been placed on providing much needed financial support for the nearly 26,000 Canadians diagnosed with breast cancer every year.
