FORM 990,PART III, LINE 4,CONTINUEDBUSINESS ACCOUNTABILITY (CONTINUED):The Breast Cancer Funds Cans Not Cancer campaign is building public pressure on canned food manufacturers to remove the toxic chemical Bisphenol A ("BPA") from their cans and to replace it with safer alternatives. Our goal is not only to move the entire industry away from BPA, but also to strengthen the movement to get chemicals linked to breast cancer out of our everyday products. www.breastcancerfund.org/cansnotcancerFEDERAL & STATE POLICY AND PROGRAMS (CONTINUED):The Breast Cancer Fund's current legislative initiatives include federal and state efforts to eliminate toxic BPA from food and beverage containers; a legislative campaign to ensure that all cosmetics sold in this country are safe and non-toxic; and support for a federal bill that will reform our broken chemical management system so that public health is protected.
FORM 990,PART III,LINE 1,CONT'DWe translate science into practical actions people can take to reduce their risk and raise their voices to call on policy makers and companies to protect us from toxic exposures. We engage in (a) scientific work and public education related to the connection between breast cancer and exposure to toxic chemicals and radiation; (b) business accountability to move markets toward sustainable and less toxic products; and (c) federal and state legislative advocacy work to secure policies that protect people from toxic chemicals and radiation.
