Assess Your Risk for Breast and Ovarian Cancer

Assess Your Risk for Breast & Ovarian Cancer
Breast cancer doesn't just happen in October...

1 in 8 women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in her lifetime. Knowing your risk is a critical first step to being your own best health advocate, not just in October but all year long. Women who know their risk are able to manage their breast and ovarian health proactively--leading to prevention, early detection, and healthier, brighter lives.

We need your help to keep the momentum going. 

Share our risk assessment tool with 8 of your friends and start this new month feeling more empowered and informed. #AssessThenAct

Advocacy Update from the ACS



I have exciting news!

Our patient quality of life bill passed in the U.S. House of Representatives.

You did this!

It was your messages to Congress. Your meetings with lawmakers. Your phone calls. It was your passion and persistence after years of work that made this happen.

Now, we need to focus on the U.S. Senate where we are already actively targeting key Senators who can help get this passed.

But today, we celebrate. Share our celebratory post on your own social media pages - Facebook or Twitter.

Then, stay tuned for your opportunity to help us move this important bill through the Senate and ultimately pass a new law that will help cancer patients and survivors get the enhanced level of care they deserve.

Thank you and congratulations.

Advocacy Request from the American Cancer Society


Cathy,

Who would have thought a postage stamp could save lives? In this case, it can.

Since it was first created, the breast cancer stamp has raised almost $90 million for breast cancer research. More funding for breast cancer research means more lives saved from the disease.

But, unless Congress acts, this lifesaving stamp won’t be available next year, which could mean less funding for breast cancer research.

Please take one minute to send a message to your U.S. Senators asking them to renew the stamp. It will really only take a minute of your time.

This is a simple, yet impactful way you can help make sure breast cancer research gets the funding it needs. We’re not asking you to give, and we’re not even asking Congress for money. All they need to do is vote to make sure the stamp is available next year.

Please make sure your Senators hear from you.

Thank you.

Korinne Moore Berenson
Senior Director, Grassroots Campaigns
