the disease.
BCF believes that most breast cancer can be prevented, and has
adopted the bold mission to eliminate the environmental
causes of the disease. Through public education, policy initiatives,
outdoor challenges and other innovative campaigns, BCF mobilizes the
public to secure the changes needed to stop this devastating epidemic.

health first. Learn more about our efforts to secure the institutional
changes and legislative reforms to end the breast cancer epidemic.
BCF
has a long tradition of organizing challenging, inspiring events
to support our work. Join the women and men who have climbed,
biked, kayaked, walked and ran thousands of feet against the odds
to become powerful advocates for breast cancer prevention efforts.

5th Annual
Breast Cancer Fund Benefit Rafting Trip
Klamath River, Saturday, June
16, 2007
In memory of our friend Brenda
Willey, a true river lover...
Join us on the Klamath river,
starting at 9:30am at the Tree of Heaven
campground.
Warm waters, superb mountain scenery, abundant wildlife
combined with a leisurely pace in rafts and inflatable kayaks all add to
an inspiring adventure, a fun day in the sun.
We'll learn about the region's history, geology, wildlife, ecology
and the inherent value of all watersheds and the need to maintain them
as healthy ecosystems.
This is a unique opportunity to combine adventure and activism.
Cost is
$88 per adult, $78 per child (12
and under)
All profits (75% of
proceeds) will go to the Breast Cancer Fund.
Women -- and men -- diagnosed with breast cancer face many mountains….
Denial. Anger. Fear. Treatment. Even death. Since 1995, The Breast Cancer Fund has changed
that daunting metaphor into a hopeful reality through outdoor
challenges for breast cancer survivors and their supporters.
These events have raised hope, awareness, and funds to prevent
breast cancer. This July, a team of 40 will challenge 14,162' Mt Shasta
to raise money and awareness for breast cancer prevention.
