About Breast Cancer Now

We’re Breast Cancer Now and by 2050, we will stop all women dying of breast cancer. We’re a charity with a different approach and attitude. Borderless, diverse, interdependent – we’re an open source of knowledge and experience, pushing ourselves to fill every gap in our understanding, leaving no stone unturned. By funding the world’s brightest researchers up and down the country, we ask the big questions and are working tirelessly to answer them. For every woman that outlives breast cancer, our lives are richer and filled with possibility. And for every woman that dies, we’re filled with a greater resolve to reach our goal. They remind us to live every day like we mean it, because time matters. They inspire us to stand together – creating a collective force for good – whose energy is impossible to ignore. With extraordinary strength of will, we’ll move from a disease that causes fear and emptiness to a generation where everybody lives. There’s no time to lose. Because each day or month or year we give back means the future has changed for good. Together we can get there faster – and give everyone more time to live.
