Minneapolis was glowing pink last night. 💗

In honor of the Breast Cancer Education Association’s 25th Anniversary, the St. Anthony Falls Bridge was illuminated in pink — a beautiful tribute to 25 years of education, connection, support and hope.

What an incredible way to mark this milestone and celebrate the community that has been part of BCEA’s journey.

Here’s to 25 years — and to all those who have inspired our work along the way.

Every October, we’re reminded of the strength, courage, and resilience of those impacted by breast cancer. But awareness alone isn’t enough—ACTION SAVES LIVES.

Getting a mammogram is one of the most powerful steps a woman can take for her health. It’s quick, it’s covered by insurance, and it can detect breast cancer early—when treatment is most effective.

Did you know?
• 1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime.
• More than 75% of women diagnosed have NO FAMILY HISTORY.

This is why screening matters for everyone. So this month, don’t just wear pink—📞 call your mother, sister, daughter, and friends. Remind them to schedule their mammogram.

Because together, we can turn awareness into action.

Knowledge leads to confidence.
Confidence leads to better conversations.
Better conversations lead to better decisions.
And better decisions can change lives.

More Than a Surgeon

His generosity, compassion, and leadership have earned him the respect of survivors, their families, and this entire community — and we're honored to have him with us again this year.

Caring for the Caregiver

Sometimes the strongest person in the room is the one quietly caring for someone they love.

Radiation therapy has long been a life-saving part of breast cancer treatment, but its long-term effects don't always surface during treatment. Sometimes they appear years later.

Join us on October 3rd to hear from a multidisciplinary panel of experts in radiation oncology, rehabilitation, and lymphedema. You'll learn about the long-term effects of breast and chest radiation therapy — and discover the emerging techniques and resources that are available now to help manage them.

This conversation offers answers, understanding, and hope for anyone who's gone through radiation.
