The Breast Cancer Deadline 2020
|
|
The Breast Cancer Deadline 2020 is a national campaign to end breast cancer -- launched by the National Breast Cancer Coalition. For decades, we've been fighting cancer with hope. For decades the lives of our daughters, mothers, and friends have been in the hands of hope. It isn't working. In September 2010, NBCC gave up hope as a strategy to end breast cancer. Today they have a strategic plan of action to end the disease by January 1, 2020. The goal is ambitious, but it is not impossible. Your help is needed. You are vital to the success of this campaign, and success means an end to breast cancer. SHARE fully supports this initiative (P.S. we're on the board of NBCC). ARE YOU WITH US? Check back for updates on our progress and how you can help! |
- It is Time to Change the Conversation about Breast Cancer

Every year I am awed by the generosity in our community for making donations and taking time to raise breast cancer awareness, by talking about screening and early detection. With all the attention and resources directed to breast cancer, the public understandably believes we have made significant progress. During "Breast Cancer Awareness Month" we hear a lot about the progress being made. But we haven't made a significant change in what really matters, which is preventing breast cancer and making certain no one dies of it.
