WHETHER IT'S HELPING PEOPLE MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS ABOUT THEIR CARE OR CONNECTING THEM WITH BREAST CANCER SURVIVORS, WE'RE HERE FOR THEM - SO THEY CAN FOCUS ON FEELING BETTER. - FINDING CURES THROUGH RESEARCH TO HELP FIND THE CAUSES OF BREAST CANCER AND BETTER WAYS TO TREAT IT SO THAT MORE PEOPLE CAN SURVIVE THE DISEASE. WE HAVE BEEN AN IMPORTANT PART OF NEARLY EVERY MAJOR BREAST CANCER RESEARCH BREAKTHROUGH IN RECENT HISTORY, INCLUDING FUNDING THE DEVELOPMENT OF TAMOXIFEN AND HERCEPTIN AND USING MAMMOGRAMS TO SCREEN FOR BREAST CANCER. - FIGHTING BACK AGAINST BREAST CANCER BY WORKING WITH LAWMAKERS TO INCREASE FUNDING FOR BREAST CANCER SCREENING AND TREATMENT, AND BY BRINGING COMMUNITIES TOGETHER THROUGH OUR MAKING STRIDES AGAINST BREAST CANCER EVENTS TO RAISE FUNDS AND AWARENESS TO FIGHT THE DISEASE.
