What if the gap between where we are and where we need to be could be smaller?

Every Canadian deserves personalized, life-saving breast cancer care—no matter who they are or where they live.

Yet today, critical gaps across the patient journey stand between Canadians and the progress they deserve. Behind every gap is a person waiting for answers, treatment, and support.

This October, you have the power to close these gaps.

Your gift fuels life-saving precision research, drives advocacy, and powers patient-centered care at every single stage:

Every Canadian deserves precision — and together, we can close the gaps.

 

Help Us Fuel Progress This October

Our progress is entirely powered by donors like you. When you give today, you aren’t just supporting research—you are closing the gaps and changing the future of breast cancer in Canada.

  
Gaps in ResearchFunding ground-breaking precision oncology so that the latest research and innovations reach patients faster.
Gaps in Early DetectionEnsuring access to advanced diagnostic tools that save lives through earlier, more precise intervention.
Gaps in Access & EquityOvercoming geographic and healthcare barriers so every Canadian patient receives equal, high-quality care.
Gaps in EducationEmpowering clinicians, patients and families with clear, actionable information about every unique diagnosis.
Gaps in TreatmentExpanding access to personalized therapies tailored to each distinct type of breast cancer.
Gaps in SurvivorshipSupporting patients who need long-term care, on-going symptom management, recurrence surveillance, and post-treatment support.

Breast Cancer Canada is bringing research, education and advocacy together to close these gaps and help move progress from the lab to the Canadians who need it.

Breast Cancer Canada Initiatives

PROgress Tracker Breast Cancer Registry is a knowledge-based research study collecting Patient Reported Outcomes (PRO) from breast cancer patients across the country.

Progress CONNECT is an online tool designed that provides patients with information specific to their type of breast cancer.

The goal is to help patients have thoughtful discussions with their treating oncologist by providing up to date evidence-based information.
