Now, more than ever, small businesses need our support. At BCRF, we have a network of small businesses and entrepreneurs who have been directly impacted by breast cancer that help us fund more hours of breast cancer research through their products.
If you’re looking for a gift or something for your home, here are five small businesses who support BCRF’s research.

The Southern California-based Malibu Apothecary creates non-toxic, vegan, and cruelty-free candles with scents inspired by exotic islands and beaches.
