About This Cause

Imagine.… A world in which you don’t have to worry about finances to receive life-saving services. Each month we get thousands of calls from women and men in need of our help. About half of those callers will already have symptoms of breast cancer. Hope.… The American Breast Cancer Foundation can provide financial assistance and hope when all seems lost. We are dedicated to providing individuals a chance to say, “I can beat cancer.” The American Breast Cancer Foundation was established in 1997 as a way for people to have access to early detection and a chance for survival. Each year, we receive thousands of calls from women and men in need of our help. Approximately 50 percent of those callers will already have symptoms of breast cancer. The American Breast Cancer Foundation is able to provide financial assistance and hope when all seems lost. We are the only national breast cancer organization providing direct financial assistance to uninsured and underserved individuals for the screening, diagnosis, treatment and survival of breast cancer. The ABCF Key to Life Breast Cancer Assistance Program provides breast cancer patients with financial assistance for support items such as emergency treatment, wigs, prostheses and medications. Critical information and referral services are provided to support patients and their families. To best serve all populations throughout the United States Spanish speaking staff and third party translation services are available to accommodate most languages. ABCF supports research for innovative diagnostic, treatment and patient support methods through leading medical institutions.
