In honor of the 15% of breast cancer diagnoses that are lobular, we’ve set a goal to raise $150K for more ILC research during Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Thanks to generous donors, we’re able to match up to $75,000 of your gifts through Oct 15th, Global Lobular Breast Cancer Awareness Day. Research is desperately needed to end the “one-size-fits-all” approach for invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) diagnoses and treatment plans.
Despite being 15% of diagnoses each year, ILC receives less than 1% of research funding – your gift can help accelerate more ILC specific research!
Plan Your Own Peer to Peer Fundraiser
Brenda did it and you can too!
Setting up your own fundraiser online takes just a few minutes, and every dollar raised will fuel research to better understand, detect, and treat lobular breast cancer.
In this video, LBCA patient advocate Brenda shares how rewarding and simple it was to launch her own peer-to-peer fundraiser online with LBCA. Friends and family rallied around her, thanking her for giving them a way to show their support.
Her success in reaching and exceeding her goal in just 3 days is proof that one person’s action can spark a ripple of impact. Together, we can reach $150K for the 15% by the 15th!
