GET INVOLVED FOR The Cause

Would you like to organize a fundraiser? The Foundation is there to guide you. Your commitment to the cause is an inspiration that allows us to continue taking concrete actions in the fight against breast cancer.

Thanks to your donations and fundraising, our team pursues its mission through research, innovation, support and awareness activities. Since its creation, the Foundation has invested $6.6 million into activities and programs for people affected by breast cancer and their loved ones.

Send us your fundraising ideas (we love new projects!) or browse through our suggested activities for some inspiration.
