One in eight women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. It’s a disease that links far too many of us—but also makes us a community with a common purpose. BCRF’s community includes not just researchers, donors, patients, and loved ones, but our 100-plus dedicated corporate partners and their employees and customers. We’re united by our personal connection to breast cancer, the responsibility we feel to end it, and our hope for a future without it.
Donations and funds raised by BCRF’s corporate partners are essential to our mission—providing the sustained support that leads to real breakthroughs. BCRF is excited to honor these 12 partners, who have backed research for up to 25 years.
