Move for the Boob
A national campaign supporting breast cancer patients
CAN YOU AFFORD TO HAVE BREAST CANCER? FOR TOO MANY CANADIANS, THE ANSWER IS NO.
A breast cancer diagnosis carries a financial weight most people don't talk about. The Breast Cancer Support Fund provides direct financial assistance to women in active treatment, helping cover the costs that don't stop just because treatment has started. Every dollar we raise goes straight to patients.
We offer SUPPORT, EDUCATION & HOPE.

"I was at the point where I just could not survive any longer and here was this ray of hope shining through the clouds. Not only did I receive financial support: I also received friendship and emotional support. The process is made very easy by BCSF and they respond very quickly. They truly understand the crisis that exists when health stands in the way of work and there is the stress of just trying to get through every day." Ashley
