Breastcancer.org Founded in 2000, Breastcancer.org is the leading online resource for breast cancer and breast health information.

Breastcancer.org is a nonprofit organization dedicated to providing the most reliable, complete, and up-to-date information about breast cancer. One Breastcancer.org visitor shares her thoughts:

Your website became my ‘go to’ place for information every step of the way. I quickly learned that in order to discuss my diagnosis and treatment with my doctors, I had to learn the vocabulary of breast cancer. Your website provided me with the crash course I needed to understand what the doctors were telling me and to ask the necessary questions. The website is so well organized and easy to use and offers such a comprehensive range of information. I have recommended your website to other breast cancer patients and will continue to do so. I stay informed on breast cancer issues through your newsletters and your on-line broadcasts. I’d like to thank everyone at breastcancer.org for the work you do in support of breast cancer patients like me.
