Vision
The Foundation’s vision is to create a reality in which the death of a young woman from breast cancer becomes a rare event.
Mission
Our mission is to save the lives of young women from breast cancer by promoting awareness, facilitating the early detection and treatment of breast cancer, funding advanced research, and in-turn, building a future free of breast cancer for young women.
Unique Challenges
Because breast cancer arises at an early phase in women’s life, young patients with breast cancer face numerous unique personal, social, and medical challenges not applicable to women who develop breast cancer at a later age. These challenges range from emotional issues to social disconnection, loss of career prospects, career disruption, economic distress, concerns related to fertility, starting a family, or caring for a young family, as well as the physical and psychosexual side effects of antiestrogen therapy and premature menopause. In addition, some young women may find it equally challenging to persuade their doctors for thorough check-ups instead of dismissing their concerns because of their age.
