About Breast Cancer Canada

Breast Cancer Canada has been laser-focused on advancing breast cancer research since 1991.

With a commitment to personalized care, we are the only national breast cancer organization in Canada dedicated exclusively to raising funds for cutting-edge research, while advocating and educating on the latest scientific breakthroughs.

Progress Through Research

Latest Research

Breast Cancer Canada donations fund life-saving research that directly impacts Canadian patients. That means better answers, bigger breakthroughs – and more personalized treatment for every breast cancer diagnosis.

Patient Tools

Our suite of digital tools are each designed to help individuals better manage their breast cancer journey through education, research and personalized insights, while also elevating the patient voice.

Patient Stories

Every breast cancer journey is unique, but together, these stories paint a powerful picture of progress. Through firsthand accounts from patients and survivors, we share stories that highlight the lived-experiences of breast cancer.

Fuel Progress

Progress happens when we invest in it. Canada is home to some of the world’s brightest minds in research. Together, we are advancing science, ensuring it leads to earlier detection, better treatments, and improved outcomes for patients across the country.

The more we know, the sooner we can end it.

Access to innovative treatments isn’t a privilege—it’s a necessity. By pushing for policies that prioritize patient-centered decision-making, we hold decision-makers accountable, ensuring that breast cancer care in Canada is not only effective but also fair and accessible to all.
