We provide funding for Breast Cancer vaccine research, diagnostic testing equipment, treatment, and recurrence prevention in the United States and World-wide! Recently we have provided pharmaceuticals for hospitals in poor countries in the Caribbean, Central America and West Africa and supported vaccine research at the Cleveland Clinic in Ohio and the San Antonio Military Medical Center in Texas.
Mammogram and Ultrasound Diagnostic Testing
We provide breast cancer screening equipment to clinics in West Africa from hospitals that are upgrading their present equipment to digital equipment. In addition we provide bicycles and a used SUV to transport the women and men to screening clinics and treatment facilities.
Vaccine Research
We support the vaccine research programs at the Cleveland Clinic and the San Antonio Military Medical Center. Trial programs are being conducted and a vaccine should be on the market soon.
Treating Poor In The Third World Countries
We provide Breast cancer pharmaceuticals for the poor in third world countries. Following surgery, chemotherapy or radiation treatment the body's immune system is weak and needs rebuilding with antibiotics, vitamins and other medicines not available at home. Drug manufacturers in the United States are contacted to provide their surplus production of medicines to two public hospitals in the Dominican Republic, Guatemala, and elsewhere, for indigent breast cancer patients following treatment.
Our Impact
We shipped $388,485.30 of Breast Cancer Medication in February, 2015, to two public Cancer Hospitals in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic, for poor mastectomy patients who need drugs to rebuild their immune system after breast cancer surgery.
Because of your help we shipped 1,499,000 tablets of Prednosine and 20,000 tablets of Celecoxib to fight breast cancer at Liga Dominicana de Cancer Instituto Oncologico in Santo Domingo.
Because of your donations we shipped $400,374 of mammography and ultrasound equipment to clinics in Ghana, West Africa.

Our Impact
Cancerous tumors were discovered in the breasts of approximately 10 women/men per 1,000 screened and those people were referred to hospitals for chemotherapy, radiation therapy or surgery. With regular mammography it is expected the rates will decline.
