The Lisa Boccard Breast Cancer Fund

The Lisa Boccard Breast Cancer Fund Services are provided at the Women's Diagnostic & Wellness Center at Broward Health Coral Springs in Coral Springs, Florida. Stage IV is fatal.

The Mission of the Lisa Boccard Breast Cancer Fund is to provide funding for breast care to women in our community who are financially unable to obtain screening mammograms and advanced high quality breast imaging and biopsies. Eligibility depends on an individual's income and/or lack of insurance. Each situation is assessed individually. The story behind the Lisa Boccard Breast Cancer Fund stems

from a women, who like many, embodies true bravery and optimism while battling the deadly disease - breast cancer. Lisa Boccard's story with this disease began in 1991 at the age of 29 when after 9 months of being mis-diagnosed, she was diagnosed with Stage III breast cancer. After enduring a mastectomy, chemotherapy, stem cell replacement and radiation, Lisa successfully defeated the disease and after ten years, was declared, "cancer free". But in 2003, Lisa was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer and was given 5 years to live. From the beginning of Lisa's journey with breast cancer, she made the decision to fight the disease and make a difference. In 2003 Lisa's brother VInce and his wife Terry developed the Lisa Boccard/Coral Springs Breast Cancer Foundation in honor of Lisa's journey. Later they approached Broward Health Coral Springs to be their healthcare partner. Their goal was to help provide free mammograms to women who are unable to afford them. With Lisa involved, their initiative grew and in 2008 it evolved to become the Lisa Boccard Breast Cancer Fund. The mission was then expanded from providing screening mammograms to providing further breast care treatment to financially needy women. To date the fund has provided over 1000 mammograms and identified nearly 45 women with breast cancer and provided follow-up treatment.
