Meet Marc, one of our incredible 2026 NYC Marathon Team runners! 🗽🏃‍♂️

For Marc, running for The Get In Touch Foundation is deeply personal. His grandmother battled breast cancer for many years, and watching her journey as a child left a lasting impact on him and his family. Thankfully, she beat it—and today, Marc is honoring her strength by helping others access the awareness, education, and resources that can make a life-changing difference.

On November 1, Marc will run 26.2 miles through New York City to help us bring breast health education to the next generation.

We’re so grateful to have Marc on our team and proud to have him running in honor of his grandmother. You can help support Marc's fundraising efforts here: https://bit.ly/4hIuDbY

As you prepare your lesson plans or health office for a new school year, don't forget to order your free breast health education resources from The Get In Touch Foundation!

Our age-appropriate materials are completely free to order and ship to your classroom. By teaching students what it means to “know your normal” and how to do a breast self-exam, you’re giving them the confidence to recognize changes, communicate with a doctor and advocate for their health throughout their lives.

Early detection starts with education! 🌸

🍦 "Life's too short, eat ice cream for breakfast." 🍦

One of Mary Ann Wasil's favorite sayings was a reminder to choose joy, savor the little moments, and never take life for granted.

This National Ice Cream Day, we're celebrating Mary Ann's unforgettable outlook on life—one that inspired so many to live fully while also taking care of themselves. So enjoy that scoop (or two!), make the memories, and don't forget to take a few minutes to know your normal with a monthly breast self-exam.

Here's to living life the Mary Ann way—with purpose, laughter, and maybe even ice cream for breakfast. 🌸

Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth at this year's NASN Conference in Las Vegas!

It was such a joy to meet new faces, reconnect with longtime supporters, and hear from the incredible school nurses who continue to champion breast health education in their schools.

For the past 14 years, this conference has been about so much more than sharing resources—it's been about building meaningful relationships, listening, learning, and working together to ensure youth and adolescents have access to life-changing breast health education.

To every school nurse: thank you for your unwavering commitment to the students you serve and for helping us empower the next generation to know their normal. We are grateful to be your partner in this important work. 🌸
