"Thanks to NBCF, my cancer was detected early, before it had spread. Thank you for giving my children and grandchildren the gift of having me here a little longer. Your support has made all the difference." - Rosa

Meet our friend Rosa, who was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2015. After undergoing a right breast lumpectomy and radiation the following year, Rosa was diligent about staying on top of her yearly screenings. Unfortunately, in 2024, she lost her insurance coverage and couldn't return for a routine follow-up mammogram. The following year, during an annual wellness visit, her physician learned she hadn't had her follow-up mammogram because she lacked coverage and referred her to a clinic that could help with the cost. With an NBCF voucher in hand to cover the payment, Rosa completed her diagnostic mammogram, which led to a recommended biopsy. That next month, Rosa received an additional breast cancer diagnosis in her left breast. With her new oncology team and scheduled mastectomy, Rosa credits our National Mammography Program for helping her detect her breast cancer before it was too late. She shares:

"I want to express my deepest gratitude to National Breast Cancer Foundation for assisting with the cost of my diagnostic mammogram and breast ultrasound. Without this program, I likely would have delayed these tests until I developed symptoms."

"My sister is a breast cancer survivor. She just hit 25 years cancer-free, which still blows my mind when I say it out loud. I watched what that looked like up close, for her and for our whole family. So when I think about NBCF and the work they do, it's not just some cause I picked off a list. It's personal." - Jo, Dutch Mill Bulbs

A new partnership in full bloom! Thank you to our friends at Dutch Mill Bulbs for joining us in supporting women and families facing breast cancer! From now until 4/8/27, the Dutch Mill Bulbs team will be supporting NBCF through fundraisers and their Pink Ribbon Tulips. We're so grateful for their contributions to our mission!

Thank you, HOTWORX, for raising over $18,000 for our Military Patient Relief Fund through their June Virtual Instructor Fundraising campaign! 🔥 💪 We had a great time joining them in Las Vegas at their HOTWORX Accelerate Convention, where we were able to share about the impact of their donation and of our MPRF program.

Since 2024, HOTWORX has raised over $79,000 to support our MPRF program, created to provide financial support to eligible military members diagnosed with breast cancer who face barriers to care. We are so grateful for their continuous support of our mission! 💗

This month, we're wishing Amy, breast cancer survivor and NBCF Community Ambassador, good luck as she and her dragon boat team travel to France for the 2026 International Breast Cancer Paddlers Commission Participatory Dragon Boat Festival!

Amy received a HOPE Kit from NBCF while she was undergoing treatment, which provided much-needed comfort to her during a lonely time. While at the hospital, she also watched dragon boat racing for the first time and was determined to be a part of it. Her breast cancer surgeon discovered that the motion of the paddling helped breast cancer patients with recovery, so he formed a team that now travels around the world to compete. The team consists of Dallas-based patients and survivors who are as old as 82, and some regularly attend NBCF support group meetings.

On August 17th, 4,500 breast cancer survivors from all over the world will join them to compete in France. Read more:

The dragon boat can hold about 22 people, and for some members, this is their first season ever.

"Receiving this gift shows me that we aren’t alone and that there are others like me who are fighting. I’m so grateful for people like Shimmer by Cindy to bring beauty to this difficult time."

We recently gifted our friend and breast cancer thriver Ahlyza a gift from Shimmer by Cindy. 💗 Ahlyza was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer when she was just 29 years old. With two sons (one and two years old), she was devastated and scared for herself, her kids, and her husband. She is currently undergoing treatment: targeted therapy and a clinical trial. She shares:

"The pieces I got from Shimmer by Cindy are so beautiful and delicately picked! They show that I can still fight in style, and they’re simply stunning! To others facing a Stage 4 diagnosis: Don’t give up & stay strong even on your hardest days! There are people looking up to us for hope - share your light and faith with them."
