Breast Cancer Facts
1 in 8 women in the U.S. are Affected by Breast Cancer
Each year in the United States, about 240,000 cases of breast cancer are diagnosed in women and about 2,100 in men. About 42,000 women and 500 men in the U.S. die each year from breast cancer. Black women have a higher rate of death from breast cancer than all other women.
Survivors Often Need Financial Assistance During Recovery
The medical costs associated with fighting the various types of breast cancer can be staggering. Not the mention the fact that most survivors have to go on long term disability just to undergo treatment. Many even lose their jobs or main source of income. Providing support to survivors is our mission.
Screening And Early Detection are Important
Breast cancer screening means checking a woman’s breasts for cancer before there are signs or symptoms of the disease. All women need to be informed by their health care provider about the best screening options for them.
